Been lurking on the boards for a while, so I thought it was time to introduce myself and the toy..

Like every car you have to make it your own, so a couple minor changes to the 997 for spring time to make it mine. There is not really anything more I will do to the car after this, so I can say its pretty much done for me.

Picked up the car last fall just before the end of the season, got to put about 350 miles on it before hibernation. It's a 2006 C2s with 18K on it now.



First thing was to address the exhaust: "gundo hack/ or fister" mod for the exhaust sounded great on a friends car so I had Jason at filthy habits fabrications was able to take care of that for me and great work as he always does of course:



I threw in some H&R springs to remove some of that ridiculous wheel gap the car had, and this way I could also keep my PASM factory adjustable electronic suspension too, good compromise for me and the wife when she rides along.



Picked up some BBS LM-R's for the car next, they were used and I will probably refinish the centers and maybe even the lips to get them back to perfect again as they were not in the best shape. They are good enough, but could be much better, the prior owner used them for track I think and they have a decent amount of marks on them, but i was able to clean them up to be usable for this season and the price was right on them.

Picked up some spacers from ECS to get the fitment perfect, really like how they machined these to fit the OEM hub and still be hubcentric at only a 10mm spacer.





Corner lenses were installed ASAP also so no one yells at me

Here it is back on the ground and just awaiting an alignment:












Now just waiting for some cleaner roads and nicer weather.....

My daily/work car is an 05.5 A4 6speed quattro also with some BBS's on it



Thanks and I am very happy to become part of the community.

Good taste for mods, how about LED DRL and GT3TEK front lip and your car is done

 

06 with 18k!!!! LOL.......damn......mine just turned 104K

 

beautiful job thus far, the wheels and drop look amazing.

 

car looks great! welcome fellow Upstate NYer.

 

I really have not found a lip I am in love with yet... and after dropping the car a bit I am really noticing that little black lip under the bumper on many places I go

Thats awesome for you, I wish I could drive mine more, I am in sales and my customers would get their panties in a bunch over it.

Thanks!

Thanks, always good to hear from someone that has to deal with the crappy weather we do.
