Don't do it on my humble opinion the best part of a 911 is the back, any wing, yes any will take that look that only a 911 S cars has!!

If I had a turbo and It would be possible to take it out I will doi it, but I do not have a turbo.

Maybe the only wing I like is the carrera classic small wing

Well, today i received the LED tails, i ordered the smoked ones and they are WAAAAY DARK, almost look blacked out...that wont work for me, will return...also the Front bumper that i ordered they dont have and tried to send me a GT3 style one instead, i wanted the cup one not the GT3 style (gt3 looks too bulky on the front of a narrow body i think) so that went to crap as well..geez

sure is addicting and glad you went with the EVOMS intake. You'll enjoy the engine howl under load... Saw a K&N one at the shop today and it fits pretty poorly but seems to let in hot air (doesn't seal well).

PS Which cargraphic version is it? The sport and race both sound pretty darned good.

Big wings, spoilers & bumpers can be a bit ricey in my humble opinion. The simplicity of the narrow body 997 is classic. Throwing on a bunch of aftermarket plastic, once again IMHO, might work on Japanese rice rockets but not on a street 997.

In the long run you might be better off not getting the 'stuff' you wanted.

Don't throw stones . . . . . It's just my opinion.

in no means would i want the car to look ricey, the aero front bumper with this spoiler + rocker panels would have looked good, i saw one on the track with a similar front bumper + this spoiler and it looked balanced..

instead of getting a knockoff front bumper, i think its worth it to pay a little more for an OEM aerokit front bumper. it'll cost you less in the end when you factor in the cost of getting it prepped and fitted. it's what i have an i'm very happy with it.

I think i may have to just do that Killa Killa Cam... its $700 more, shipping alone from sun coast is $400 thats what is killing me i guess!

it might be worth it to check some local dealerships. maybe they'll match suncoast's price or it could be a bit more but will offset shipping charges.
