Precision Porshce Project car 98% complete

We finally completed our project car a couple of weeks ago. It went through a lot of different phases and it is like watching our own kid graduate college We didn't take too many pics throughout the process but we have some. Let us know what you think

This car started out as our fitment car so here are a few pics of it throughout it's life

Pre-school phase: Testing out our gt3 style wing



Middle school phase: Testing out our gemballa style hood and aftermarket lip



High school phase : Testing out our TA style front bumper and sides, our turbo rear bumper for the narrow body and gt2 wing



Entering college: We decided to take it up a notch and convert it to a 997 gt street













Graduation day!!









Thanks for looking. As always, comments are welcomed!

Edwin

Body looks good. But the wheels look all wrong on that car. Too small, wrong style, and no where near enough offset. I see that sort of wheel wrongness in many kit cars -- especially poorly executed Lambo replicas. The good news: That's a fairly easy fix.

I like it a lot but like everyone is saying that rear end is soooooo wide you need a style of wheel to make up for that extra wide body look.

Could someone please either photoshop on some proper wheels or have the moderator pull the pictures before this gets out of hand!?
