Thumbs up SuncoastParts.com - 997 (Gen 2 ) Project Car



Check out our latest project car! We prepared a 2009 Carrera S for Sebring, we needed a center-piece for our Porscheplatz display. Thanks to all of the vendors who helped us, we're happy with the results. Just want to thank a few folks:

Vorsteiner.com:
V-GT Decklid & Wingblade - If you haven't seen this in person, it's amazing, the carbon is gorgeous. It's hard to see on the Vorsteiner website, but there is a small hour-glass shaped piece between the air intakes that is unpainted, this allows you to see the uncovered carbon.......a nice touch. It was a quick and easy installation, and excellent fit and finish.

DrivingExpressions.com:
XPEL - Front End Clear Bra
Window Tint
Light Film - Tail Lights & Parking Lights in Smoke, Headlights in Yellow - This is very cool stuff, we will be carrying their products on our site soon.

AWE-Tuning.com:
Black Chrome Tips & Exhaust Cross Over Pipes - Where do I begin, very cool stuff. The black chrome tips are my new favorite, very subtle.....very shiney. The Cross Over Pipes delete the secondary muffler on the second generation 997's, this adds a significant sound difference. Installation was simple for these parts, and excellent qaulity.

Champion:
RS 184 Wheels with Michelin Pilot Sports - We chose these wheels because of the old-school, race inspired look. They're very clean and simple, and massively wide!

Tequipment Parts:
Carrera S Side logos with RS Bumper Decals
spoiler

Other Goodies:
H&R Springs
Rear GT3 Decklid Harness
Clear Side Markers
Black Mirror Housings

We're working on a few more upgrades for the car, and we will be posting more pictures soon.

How in the heck did I miss this! I parked my 09 C2S in the corral too. Hummm...I will stop by the dealership in a week or so to check it out. i am interested in the wing and what the crossover pipes sound like compared to my Fabspeed side muffler delete pipes...you guys might want to hear my car for your reference too.

Looks great! You should bring it to the April 18th Sebring Chin DE event.

It was next to the Porsche tent, how did you miss it? haha It was next to our Transsyberia replica Cayenne too, just behind the stands. Bring it by, I'd like to compare the two systems.

Sweet setup!
How come the wheel gap is bigger than My 997.1 C4S which is also lowered on H&R springs?

I spent at least 45 minutes looking, talking with Aaron and Philip, taking pictures of it at Sebring. It looks 10 times better in the flesh than in the pictures here and was easily the dominant centerpiece of the Porscheplatz. Anyone within driving distance of Sarasota should stop in and check it out; especially the wing!

Wow, that's really nice looking. Makes me want to re-think my deposit on a '10 GT3. Nicely done. With all the business I've done with you guys I probably paid for those parts
