I have Silver 996TT, I wanted it add color to it, is Guards Red / Black or GT3 Green a good combo or what you think any pics would help,

Color

Is is seal gray?

I have a Seal gray 996TT with metalic silver GT3RS rocker panel stripes on it. I bought them from http://www.kistudios.com/turbo.html

They are vinyl and can always be removed if you change your mind.

I like the silver because it's not flashy, is a little understated, but still jazzes up the look of the car a little.

Before I decided to do a repaint of my total car. I added a black wing, mirrors, splitters, etc. It is a nice combo with the silver.

I'd be interested in a picture of your car since mine is seal gray as well.

I had a 996 Cab in Arctic Silver and thought about doing the wheels, mirrors, a ring around the center grille opening and lower rocker stripes in A bright orange. I did a photo shop layer over a photo. Looked hot.
