Thanks guys! Can't wait to take it to the track!

And that's what I've been hearing about the white being rare on 996s. I'm pretty sure I'm going to powder coat the wheels gloss black and tint the windows to give it that sporty white on black edge.

Yeah I hate the tail lights, thats the second modification I am doing after tint. (My Tint is getting done today Pictures in a few hours) The lights I am going to put on there are http://www.andysautosport.com/porsch...s/spyder_auto/. The non tinted ones. I hate the head lights too (just the yellow on it) but I think those are a lot more expensive to change.

Welcome to the 6...your first set of mods (black wheels [centers or all?]), tint, and lights) will surely add to the beauty of this rare find. Congrats.

Yeah I'm doing the whole wheel black including the centers. I was thinking about a white lip but I feel my wheels are too small, they are only 18s
