your car is amazing..so beautifull...congrats....btw what tailight is that???

great looking fenders....

that said, surprised no one makes a really wide fender flare set up for the 997 cars.... I cant stand Liberty Walk (my apologize if anyone has and likes) and as mush as this looks amazing I want more....

does anyone know if a possible wide body fender flare set up for the 997 cars? Whether rivet look (but clean like old school 993 gt2) or integrated into the fender...

Thanks all,
great looking 997TT

The 997 cup fenders are wider. I have seen a few conversions. Mainly non-turbo cars but there are a few TT:s out there, with or without cup front bumper. I believe BBI have used the cup fenders in some of their 997 TT builds if I'm not mistaken.

Reviving another old tread. Awesome built on both cars.

I'm also going down the cup flare route as well, but now running into some questions around wheels and tires.

What the's spec for your wheels and tires?

Thanks in advance.

I did mine no problem I think they look great. Gotta have the correct wheels if your going aftermarket.

Thanks. I might be letting it go soon. Haven’t made up my mind but been checking out some E30m’s. Mine is an 09 with 13,400 miles on the dile. Have all the oem parts that came with it. Will put it back to stock when I’m ready to sell.this is my interior pretty rare. I’m banking on the low miles and color combo to get me a sweet return.
