i bought the front bumper from a forum member that never got around to installing it on his car.

these are going on next week. wb offsets, they came off of a local 997.2 turbo.

New wheels mounted. I think I need some spacers in the front. Not sure if I should get the usual 7mm or go for 10mm?

Don't think about it to long 7mm to 10mm is not that much difference. I'm running 7mm and they look get, even with an aggressive camber. By the way car looks great !

you know it's funny... I think that if any Carrera can pull off chrome wheels it's yours. Maybe because it's black/black? They don't bother me on your car.

edit- after seeing the picture of the new wheels... WHOA what a transformation! Best thing you could have done to that car! Awesome choice!

Nice ride!!!

Thanks so much! I'm really loving it right now.

Wow, so much better looking than the chrome turbo's you had before. A good set of wheels makes all the difference.

Killa,

Car looks MUCH sharper sans the chrome and those wheels really add to and complete the look. Nicely done!

i like the chrome wheels...look very clean/sharp...what ever you like is what counts...

Thanks! I have turbo ii wheels now which I think makes the car look more modern.

Finally out of hibernation and back in philly. Added matte black stone guards and 7mm h&r spacers up front.

I came to the Philly area 27 years ago was supposed to be for a couple months that was 28 years ago. Used to live in Gladwyne but never felt quite at home there so now live a few miles away in a little town called Gulph Mills. Just a little closer to my favorite sushi spot Bluefin!

I move to Philly about 18 years ago..... moved to Rosemont for 1st year and hated it... moved into Center City near 2nd and South... LOVED IT.... got married and moved to Gladwyne 5 years ago.... HATE IT (location that is).

Peace

Looking sharp. Like the matte black stone guards. Did you get them from Suncoast?

Headhouse Square is a nice location but a little loud for me. i used to live on 3rd and new in old city but now i live in northern liberties by the piazza. i love the city, but if i ever get married, i get the feeling that i would move out to the burbs as well. right now, i love being able to take public transportation anywhere i need to go.

i got them from suncoast 2 years ago but finally got around to having them installed last week. my original ones had seen better days.

I was never a fan of the black stone guards on the 997. I just never thought they looked right as they did on the old 930's . . . especially on lighter-colored cars.


This all changed when I saw your car. I think the flat black guards on a gloss black body really looks sharp. Nice job.
