Some I-Phone shots of the new wheels!

I just had the car cleaned!

The car now has the 19" OZ Racing Superforgiata's with Tikore titanium bolt's, GT2 sideskirts, Gen 2 rear end, carbon side mirror's and the Champion Racing carbon front and rear spoiler's.

I removed the diffuser as one of the bolts dropped out and wasn't sitting pretty.

In the near future I will get some pro shots done!

Perfect! Any plans to reinstall the rear diffuser? I am tempted to add one, however I can't imagine the feeling I'd have the first time I scrape a $3,500 piece.

Nice work Nick. Looks good. I would consider a roof spoiler, to balance out the large tail wing, possibly in carbon as well.
I would also consider swapping the wheel centers and the hood crest with silver, your theme is now silver and black, gold seems out of place...

Congrats!

Thanks for your feedback.

I think the hoodbadge and the wheel badges are nice IMO.

I have also thought about a carbon roof spoiler but I am still pondering the decision.

When you see the car infront of you it looks a million times better than in the pics!

Also I'm going to throw some RS orange into the mix!

That is a really interesting idea... Look at the silver and orange gt2rs for clues. And take it one step further and do the calipers as well!!!!

Well it was meant to be a surprise but I have ordered the brembo front and rear GT kits!

I am going to send the calipers to be painted in RS orange with porsche written in black!

I also have an RS orange roll cage, RS orange dials, black leather carbon kevlar recaro pole positions with rs orange sticthing and a carbon steering wheel.
