Updated 997 pics - mods and paint correction detail!

Guys, finally got some time to post some updated pics of my 2006 997. These pic were taken by my detail artist, Brian at SpeedFreak detailing in Sterling, VA. If you are in the area, I highly recommend him.

List of mods
19" OZ Superleggara's
Fabspeed Maxflo exhuast
OEM GT3 front bumper with Cup spoiler and custom grill
DRC Front DRLs lightly smoked
DRC Rear LEDs
H&R lowering springs
Techart Type III rear spoiler
and some interior OEM carbon stuff - door sills, shifter, ebrake

Wow! Looks great! Is your 997 a 4S? I ask because wondering if the side skirts are just part of the factory widebody or if you purchased these aftermarket? Looking to add some width below the doors.

Thanks! Just a base c2. Lower trim is stock, might look more full since the car is lowered, I dunno..

I will PM you the full details. But, I recommend D and V for any body work. They spray tinted my front DRL's and I plan on having them respray my front bumper next year.

Looks amazing. Anyone know this quality type detailer in the Philly area? Don't trust most with my wife's car much less mine.
Thanks

Thanks! I have been debating a change for a while now. Maybe ducktail, maybe 997.1 GT3 and then I saw v35's car and now I am thinking 997.2 GT3...

Not sure what I want to do so not making any changes right now.

Looks great! The only thing I would have ordered different is the wheel color. Charcoal or black to make it look more aggressive but not everyone like dark wheels on black cars like I do. Thanks for sharing

Yep, wheel color is something I have flopped back and forth on too. I have two sets, the OZ and 19" Work Brombrachers. I want to do something funky with them, they need to be refreshed anyway. I am thinking about this -



If i just sell them I will probably get a set of black ones, just to change up the look.
