My official plan for the car: photoshops/positive feedback is welcome

So i have finally decided i am doing a matte white/black/red, NR auto bodykit(techart gt street rep) with 2010 taillights and the finned diffuser.

I have not decided on wheels yet, however was leaning towards a preferably centerlock wheel. I am just not sure on how to change my hub to fit the centerlock.

Anyway, i am also putting my FVD brombacher exhaust back on and a tune for the car as well.

After cosmetic mods/tune and exhaust are done i plan on going for performance.

Most likely will do KWv3 with agency swaybars and the droplinks, etc.

That is where i think i will end my project, unless people want to get on board and join this project with me

If anyone can photoshop a matte red techart gt street with 2010 taillights, i would really appreciate it.

-Sam


Attached are the NR auto pictures of the bodykit

That diffuser looks really slick. Are you going to paint the car or wrap?

i plan on getting the body parts, putting them on the car and then having the whole car wrapped.

So in the future i could remove the whole body kit and sell it primed without paint.

I hope all goes well with your mods.

I am debating between the NR Auto GT Street Kit and the NR Auto Gt2 kit.

I think HREs are the way to go... Any idea which ones you are leaning towards? I like the new 560Rs and they are quite reasonably priced.

Please post picstures along the way bud.

i really like the HRE p40 but everyone has them.

At this point i am deciding between 19" or 20", and a wheel with a lip or without.

Think you need these, Sam. Would go perfectly with the H&R's I sold to you

I love the look of large lip on a TT, escpeically when it has a kit like a GT Street.

If you are trying to get some great wheels at a reasonable price the 500R series from HRE are new and would run about $4,500 I think. It is totally your personal preference but I would go for large lip 560R.

You can see it here http://www.luxury4play.com/asian-auto/60431-fs-hre-560rs-w-r888-20-gtr-fitment.html

I would also sacrifice a bit a perfrmacne a go for 20s with lowering springs... the look is just amazing

i agree, i think lips look fantastic. However i decided to leave wheels until after i get the bodykit.

I really want to order it all right now, however i am still debating 2 subjects:

Matte white or matte red car? I have natural leather interior, would look great with both colors

as well as i am not sure which spoiler i want.

I love the look of the vorstiener, but it is soo low sitting.

I am debating between techart gt street wing, vorsteiener wing, 997.2 gt3 RS wing(if possible), and a gt2 wing.

tell me your thoughts.

It seems we have quite similar taste.

I would go for matt white.

I would choose the gt2 wing and NR Auto make a replica. Another forum member has it and says the wing fitted well but the NR Auto gt2 replica front bumper had some fitment issues.

The only part of the gt street look I don't like is the rear wing. My two cents ;-)
