Thumbs up

Amazing . The exhaust probably sounds fantastic and I imagine it probably baffles a lot of 997S owners who have stock cars and see yours .

I can't handle the red lobster wheels . I like the idea of a black centered spoke wheel with a step lip . The Hre C21 .

I can handle adding a Gt3 front , techart mirror inserts and painted (red)roof spoiler .
I can handle a silver badge .

Yikes --it's expensive but you are already in deep with this nice setup .
Beautiful job . Very creative. Soud clip of the exhaust?

Best wishes with it.

I would love to see your car in person to see how mine may turn out.

I'm also going to get the GMG GT3 exhaust eventually.

Looks rad!
PM me, I love showing off my toys and see other peoples!

I will probably lower the car once I move out of my current house and into a house with a less steep driveway!

The only things that I'd prefer...

GT3-RS rear spoiler

Red OEM taillights

Standard color wheels

Yeah, new wheels are probably not far off. That being said, the wheels are one of the things that attracted to me to this very red car.

Jason I love it...the 17mm spacers the way they brought the wheels out to the edge is perfect. The red lobster's I could live without but it does add a uniqueness to your car with quite good personalization.

There is not any drone. So far I have not found that the exhaust will resonate at certain RPM's. Now if you are asking, can you hear the exhaust while cruising, the answer is yes but its not resonating or uncomfortable to listen to. I actually love it!

Looks amazing. I'm also on the fence about upgrading my wheels. I like the durability of the stock rims. I have 20" 3 piece on my GS430 and have had few issues in the past. Also I would love to see some pics of your interior. Currently I have tons of carbon, but no interior paint. Thinking about the painted rear console as well as the seat backs. How's the durability of the interior paint. I do use the back seats every once in while, and am worried about chipping.

Here are some interior shots from my last shoot. Gauges, gauge surround, glovebox trim, seat backs, seat belt outlet, seat belts, center console are all red!

Thanks for the pics. Looks fantastic. Where did you have it done, or is it factory?

Believe it or not, the original owner had the car specced this way from the factory. However, the center console has just been repainted by GMG.... top notch work!
