I like the front bumper and rear wing better than the TechArt GT Street....

JohnH is infamous around these parts
Is the rear wing carbon? Also does the front bumper go lower then the stock one? I don't really feel like getting the sides or back.

Viewing side by side, I like the TechArt more. It's a little more aggressive but the Rinspeed is HOT too. I don't think anyone can go wrong with either.

The Rinspeed GT2 wing is hot too!

Overall. the Techart gets the nod with the wing being the question mark. The Rinspeed is sweet, definitley less aggressive. The Rinspeed tips look sissy but the wing is hot!

As much as I love the Rinspeed wing, it's too similar to the 996 GT2 wing. I kind of like to look forward not backwards.

for me the perfect combo would be Rinspeed front with Current Techart wing and sides, the TA GTstreet is a little too much. HRE's in black with polished lip.

Wowza, that is true hotness! I'm not sure about the cotton ***** stuffed in the cheeks looking front but I definitely like the repositioning of the fog lights. I like how they pay homage to the original 930 turbo with the black fender protectors.

The Rinspeed almost has a Cayman look with the long tail, doesn't look very good IMO. I'm a bit undesided about the front.

The front of the TechArt looks miles better in these live shots than it did in the renderings, but I would like to see it in a "normal" colour before I can give a final judgement. When are you getting yours Fred?
