champion rg19. powdercoated gunmetal and added a red pinstripe
i have tried a few different wheels and imo the champions are the lightest, strongest and best designed by far.

That is a next to impossible. My car was completely stock, this time last year. This forum is good for allowing you to educate yourself on the good and the bad mods.

i have over done a few cars in the last decade. its that hindsight that i feel will help me resist the mod bug. from experience, i can tell you that there were a bunch of things i had wished i did not waste my money on. sometimes, i wished i could go back to stock.

HOWEVER, i did read this forum for a while before i bought my 997 and i DID have the dealer swap out a set of clear side lenses. i would have never know about that had i not visited here.

i think i am good to go for a good while.

i may buy some OZ wheels but today, my brotyher in law took the car for a spin while i waited and watched and i am even doubting that i will buy the wheels. the stock wheels looked beefy as hell and awesome looking in motion...

See that is a mod, you have the bug, now it just has to get a little stronger and then you are going to be as bad as the rest of us.

Bara, it is already taking you over, once you ask you are already interested! I will remind you of your post that you won't be modding, ask Mickfluff about this!

BTW, nothing wrong with a stock 997C2S, it is a great car to drive.

ok ok, im restricting myself to pse, maybe oz wheels though the stockers look very robust, and better exhaust tips.

if i did the pse, i'd want the switch and i dont know if thats workable for a non chrono car
