My 997 pictures




Hi guys,

im pretty new on this forum and i wanted to post a couple pics of my 09 Carrera.

Here are the mods i did to it, i like to keep it clean and simple:

Bilstein coilovers (set to the lowest)
Niche Targa 20’’ wrapped in 235/30 and 295/25 tires
Fabspeed exhaust and x-pipe
Dual oval exhaust tips
KBD front lip with Mansory side skirts

Let me know what you guys think!

thanks!

Looks great. I love how cartoonish the wheels look in the wheel wells.

Nice mods!
How is the ride with the coilovers in the lowest setting?
Do you have any clearance issues on driveways with the front lip?

+1 but if I were in a *****ing mode (and today I am) I would say raise it just a bit and see how you like it. That's the beauty of coilovers vs. springs. You can tweak the settings until you get it just right. Looks a little slammed at that lowest setting for my likes but that's just an opinion that you can obviously ignore completely. Other than that, beautiful car, boat and house. Well done.

Sick setup! Love the wheels and slammed look. Side skirts don't look right, almost like they don't fit or are installed wrong...but otherwise you've nailed it!

Looking closer, it appears there are some aftermarket aero pieces adhered to the front bumper and on top of the normal side skirts. Can't tell from the angles if the rear bumper has a complimentary piece as well, but I think that's what you're seeing and picked up on.

Thanks!

The ride is a little firmer than stock but it's not too bad.

Yes the front lip touch the ground sometimes when the driveway is very in angle. Especially each corner of the front lip because they are lower than the center. But the lip is in urethane so I'm not too worried about breaking it as if it was in fiberglass.
