Thanks! Unfortunately I have not driven the car except for the 4-5 miles I drove around for the photoshoot. The car is still at the dealer, although I will pick it up sometime this week.

Ahh ok, well get it and drive the hell out of it I see alot of people opt for the springs because of PASM, i would love to know their impressions since i hate putting springs on a car, especially of this calibur!

I know you probably haven't driven her much but any issues with scraping the front end since you dropped her? That is the issue that I'm faced with when deciding whether or not I should drop my car. Just about every Turbo that I've seen all have scraped the front spoiler lip already.

I think the front spoiler lip should be considered a replaceable part for the most part. Would definately not hold me back from dropping her a bit though. Just dont get it painted. Relatively large front overhang on the 911 = lots of contact with the ground no matter what.

Hey Peter,
Saw your ride pulling out around BW today. Hopefully, it was you driving it! That thing looks very impressive but I cant get over the exhaust tips. They need to go. The wheels looked stunning!

Love the drop but not sure on the wheels... stance is correct but the design is not much porsche-like...

sport seats would have been nice too... otherwise perfect...

I guess some TechArt stuff will be added...

I want the headlight rings for mine... maybe the rear valance too... send me prices please...
