I like the hood. I was looking around 6speed to see pics of cars with that done. I am debating doing the same. However, I am beginning to lean towards switching to Fuch Wheels and a Ducktail to go retro instead.

go retro, I wonder if getty design did make the sports classic ducktail for the 996. I think so. It flows better than old ducktail.

if you want to break up the red, paint the windshield cowl in black! that will complement the black hood and black material roof

paint the chrome lips on wheels red and matte black centers and it would look even nicer.

I'd leave it....I go by the saying, "Just because you can doesn't mean you should!" There is a fine line between class and overdone. P-cars are class....not rice rockets. Nice straight up wheels (no bling), good road height, nice hood, nice side skirts. Leave it! When you re-sell, you may to take the skins off and raise it back to stock anyway to get the most money out of it. I kept all my OEM parts, wheels, springs, tail lights, side markers.

Not too crazy about the lights under the car. I kinda like the LED lights in front. But, I love that u love your car. All the guys who were a little harsh probably don't love their cars as much. Or treat them as well.

If you had 997 headlight assemblies I think it would look alot better.
