But... you gotta do something about this tips. They stick out way too far and I am not sure the dry carbon look matches the theme of the car. Just my opinion, which means absolutely nothing.
That's a cool picture. Car looks great with the new wheels.
Thank you!

Thanks! I like the dry carbon look and think it suits the build well. Some of the wide angle shots make them look like they stick out a lot, they barely poke out more than PSE.
Today I went out for a nice Sunday drive, the car rides great but it did have slight rubbing in the rear going over large bumps/dips (happened twice today). After a brief inspection at home it turned out that it was sheet metal on the inside of the rear wheel well where the bumper fastens to the body. I used a heat gun on the paint and gave it a few taps with a rubber mallet to fold it in slightly. I went for another drive trying to recreate the rubbing and it seems to be gone
The 911 got a much needed wash and detail this at my cousin's place this weekend. We also removed the pitted and yellowed vinyl guards on the quarters, they will be replaced with fresh and invisible film. Photos:
An absolutely beautiful build and vehicle. The 911 is such a work of art and as others have noted, the photography is stellar and truly represents the vehicle as artwork!
I particularly enjoyed the seasonality of the outdoor settings. We don't have much of that here in Florida (none!), so at least I got to vicariously enjoy the changing of your seasons.
Front suspension height is set and camber adjusted, looks much better now. Next step for suspension will be rear toe links and an alignment, but both will have to wait until the snow and ice are gone.
Brilliant build! I have the same colour 997. :-) Did you do any other suspension mods after the coilovers to get the alignment on point? I believe the rear toe links are a requirement, but anything else needed? Do you experience any bumpsteer?
Edit: How much is the car lowered if you use the center of the hubcap to the bottom of the fender method?
