Finally shot some pics!

bought my first P-car last year...finally shot some pics! I know, need to lower....researching which kit to install. Daily driver that replaced an S500 Merc.

Great forum and seems to be filled with real Porsche owners, not guys who offer all kinds of advise on "vapor" Porsches.

Keep up the good work!

No kidding....love the gaps between the tires and fenders Although, it makes it a little more toublesome trying to enter my driveway at our ski cabin, due to snow...need the Cayenne air suspension...btw, anyone know who makes the most popular kit for lowering a 996?

The front covers are Strosek....wanted a more traditional Porsche look..Not 100% happy, but like it better than the "fried egg" lights...

Thought about installing Techart's but loved the 5 spoke Carrera wheel. Had them shot at Queen City Auto Rebuild in Redmond, WA, they do excellent work . They dismount the tire, clean the wheel, mask, remount, and match balance the tires and even paint the center caps, all for only $200/each...significantly less than TechArts.

I'll shoot some closeups tomorrow and send post them as soon as I can...
