Simple Visual Mods Yield Great New Look...

Hello 6speeders,

As some of you are probably aware, I received my 997.2 TT early June.
While waiting for its arrival, I purchased some parts to individualize the look.
Here's the almost finished look, with the exception of one part yet to arrive...

997.2 TT, I christen thee Shadowfax:


Carbon Fiber Wrap Front Spoiler Lip and Rottec CF Mirrors:






Rottec Carbon Fiber Roof Spoiler:




Carbon Fiber Wrap Rear Wing and Rottec Roof Spoiler:




Rottec CF Mirrors and CF Wrap Rear Spoiler:




Overall Front Look:




The last remaining part to complete the look is the SpeedArt carbon fiber side intercooler air intake covers... Already ordered from Vivid Racing, awaiting arrival.

Any and all comments highly appreciated

Beautiful and tastefully done. What is the significance of the two triangles?

Probably displaying my ignorance, but I have noticed in several pictures of Porsches in the middle east on the rear bumper there is a silver double triangle attached at the base. What is this?

How good is the quality of Rottec? I have never heard of it before. Was the install easy or did they need any modifications?

Thanks brother. Can't wait to show it to you and let you take it for a spin. You've got reply mail!

Thanks Ray. It's actually the stock wiper that the guys at the P dealership shortened.

The wrap is CF vinyl wrap.

Eventually, I will order the rear wing from you in proper CF if you make it. PM me pricing if you have it.

The front spoiler lip will stay vinyl as it is much cheaper to re-wrap it when it inevitably gets scraped to a point that it needs it.

I wish I can come up with some exotic explanation such as, it stands for the horns of the devil because it's a middle east special edition devilishly fast!


The simply fact of the matter is that these twin triangles are the logo/insignia of the Porsche dealer in Kuwait.

It's specific to Kuwait, not the whole of the Middle East.
