Here is a close up off the RS vent. This one has matte wrap, you can see the difference in sheen at the seam near the bottom of the vent.

MIKe30 is on a distinguished road
Am I the only one around that thinks body colored vents look much better?

Nope!


I said it before , "there is nothing new under the sun".


When I had my 996T, everyone wanted the 997 "split" and now many want the 996 open.


I think it looks a lot cleaner stock with matching color.


BUT


Now that I have had the car for over 4yrs I am thinking how would a carbon hood and carbon GT2 Non splt or even split look on midnight blue.....


When I had the 996T I wanted to do a carbon hood for weight savings as you lose like 40lbs(!) and most likely I was going to paint it. In the 997 it is aluminum and weights nothing anyways. For me to justify the cost of a hood for the 997 it would be just for a different look and not worth it for me.


Possibly for a different look AND EXTRA PERFORMANCE in my 996 it might of been worh it, but for a "possible", change in looks with HUGE cost???
