I love the color - very interested in the final pics.

I'm still not sure i like this kit in general - but excited to see your build get completed!

I really really like it. Looks beautiful and very aggressive at the same time.

Very RSR Looking well done and congrats.

I tell you what you have tempted me to do this.

So, help me understand this. You need to cut the steel fenders for more wheel clearance, then you rivit on fiberglass extensions? Of course, no going back to stock. Uh, yes a very rsr like result. So, what size tires does it let you run? Just too rice for a porsche, unless you're running 1000 hp or something. Just too extreme for a street car.

The rear bumper with the raw exhaust exposed looks amazing!

Cool build. Consider adding a matching screen to the front radiator for protection and completeness.

Just amazing. Love it. Agreed that the exposed exhaust is an unexpected awesome detail.

thanks guys, i did not expect the car to look this bonkers but im super happy with the result. as for the mesh in the front bumper for the radiator, not going to do that. i not only got it for better cooling but the fact that its exposed makes the car look more aggressive, getting another radiator if this one gets damaged would not be an issue from CSF.

the people that think this is rice is of no concern to me, this is a personal style of choice that everyone that sees it in person seems to appreciate. but again to each their own. as you all know 650 whp pdk turbo s cars can easily handle 800 whp or (1000 crank hp) cars, just ask adam aka longborder. heres a couple more shots for you guys. thanks!!

looks like it needs some racing seats to blend the aesthetic to the interior!


seriously though, it take some guts to do a build like this - kudos


the fit and finish look very good with respect to the fitment between the aftermarket bumpers and front fenders.


I recently saw a techart gt street turbo up close and was terrified by how bad the fitment was. the carbon front fenders didn't even enclose the oem headlight evenly. bare in mind that kit costs 100k
