Hey Rock. my preference would be the Techart and let me tell you why... The side skirts of the Speedart are swooping upward from the front wheel to the rear. Creates alot of downforce and I think it takes away from the look of the car.. The Techarts are straight and better fit the lines of the machine.. Hope that helps and good luck in your decision... Best regards..

You dont have to worry about the wheels, I have a set coming from Complete Custom Wheel, and they are actually making them a little more custom for me by lightening them up with some extra machining and making a few other little changes. Ill post the pics when I get them but they should be excellent.

Honestly, I like both of them but the CF Wing makes me want to tell you go for the Speedart kit.

you should put the techart kit with other wheels, at least you will end up having something no one else has, just my opinion of course..

Although the stock wheels have grown on me I think there are better looking wheels out there for that car. Something deep dish with fat lips, maybe HRE's? As far as body kits, they TA and SA (a little better) both look good but I think,aside from that the only thing the 997TT needs is painted lowers and a speedart rear decklid spoiler. The car is perfect otherwise.

I like the Speedart more. Looks a lot better to me. I hate the body-matched headlight surrounds too.

When I started this thread is got about 10 to 3 techart votes before Speedart started coming back, if Speedart keeps this up they will catch up

I think TA is number 1 but the fitment on the side spoilers is not the best I had to use Wurth white glue to fill the gaps and I think this shouldn happened in a hi en tuner like TA.
