Well there she is... lowered, gt3 wing installed, badges installed, gold crest center caps installed, new rear bumps installed, side skirts installed. Still on the hunt for a GT3 MK1 front bumper.

Question on the air vent inlets on the gt3 spoiler are there supposed to be vent grills or are they just open. I am worried about leaves and debris getting in there.

Thanks in advance

Very nice!

What brand of side skirts did you install? How difficult was the installation?

Looks great.

The way the car sits is so subtle, I can hardly tell its lowered. Very nice.

Car looks great,,,,

I would also suggest to paint the rear bumperetts so they can blend right in...

Here is a bumper we offer that would be a great direct bolt on...

I see you got a little frankenstein action going on.

This is a perfect amount of lowering if you plan on getting the mk1 GT3 bumper.

I recently installed CO's and had to raise the front from scraping, especially if you have the mk1 GT3 bumper w/front lip.

I'll see if I can dig up a pic later

Thank you all for the positive comments.... I love the lines on the 996 so any modifications I try to keep to subtle details (GT3 Spoiler) and Porsche parts.

I am looking for an MK1 GT3 front bumper and other than a couple of details on the exterior , it should be complete or until I get bit by the bug again.

As for the interior aside from very minor wear and tear the interior is in excellent shape and just needs some minor upgrades and details.
