Did some mods over the winter

The console in white with a new shift boot with alum. trim and a 997 shift ****. 997 shifter with agency power linkage upgrade. The FVD metal pedals. The wheels are on for a week, but still not sure what I am doing with them yet.

Looks good, what front end is that?

Interior looks good but it can use a silver/black e-Brake handle to match the rest.

Turbo nose not sure who makes it, it came with the car
Wheels- I am working on that also, I am working out a deal on some champions.

i think painting/ powdercoating the center of the wheels black, will give it a great look

clean car

I like the wheels like there are, rather than darker color.

19x11 and 19x8 fronts 367.00 all 4 shipped to my door, I had to try them for that price. They are Moda md1 in satin finish w/ clear. I don't like dark rims myself. I had oem sport designs and hated cleaning them and some chrome MHT wheels and I got sick of chrome. I am running these until I find something better. Moda makes the same wheel with a black center,. These are probably 250.00 each normally so not the most expensive wheel by any means.

Car looks nice though after the detail. I think the wheels are fine, maybe not my personal preference but not bad. I think that the biggest problem is the clash between the black tires, white car, chrome/silver wheels, and blue top. It just seems like theres a lot going on. Maybe thats why the wheels look a bit off. Just my 2 cents.

Also, there seems to be a bunch of people in this thread alone from nj/ny when my next car comes in we should get some kind of a meet for all the 6speed folks to meet up in person.
