This is why I never went with the black theme with orange. However, I think my p40's in a brushed finish and gt orange exterior look hot.

My orange juice

Firstly I must say thank you to Dan at vivid racing for excellent and professional service.

The products arrived on this side of the world, thousands of miles in excellent condition. Advice was always available either by phone or email.

I would highly recommend Vivid Racing for all your Porsche gear.

Next, thank you all you guys n ??gals for your honest comments. I love my orange Porsche and it beats any of the cars that I have had recently. Each to their own I guess. It is HOT!! I put the matt black through it to break up the intense orange. The front hood is carbon fibre. This car started as a black 997 turbo.

Lambo envy? I doubt it as I got rid of my 2004 orange gallardo because it wasn't fast enough, and my 2004 dark grey Murcielago because it was too much of a handful.

Not lowering it because 98% of the time its my daily drive car and the roads here in NZ are not very forgiving and you will end up losing your front spoiler on all the uneven surfaces.

Keep the comments coming, love the feedback.

Standard exhaust tips, painted matt black, rear lights have a dark clear coat paint on them to black them out.

Are you sure??? Standard tips for 997 turbo are nothing like that, they look more like Techart, EVOMS, Fabspeed.

You are right EVOMs exhaust tips, I bought this car already modified and the previous owner put the total EVOM kit on it. Painted them matt black from the original stainless.
Thanks for the correction.

I've got to say I appreciate when people are original and do what they like rather then jump in the forum asking people what wheels to pick, colors, exhaust, etc etc. Too many old cats and haters in here.
