A couple new mods

A couple months ago I added the 997 GT2 side rocker panels




But it looked incomplete without the front/rear painted lips so I had those painted




And for the final touch I added the TechArt exhaust tips. This picture was taken during installation to compare the stock vs TechArt.


I hope to take some more pictures tomorrow at the Cars & Coffee meet showing the completed look.

Stay tuned!

Those changes look great . I am a big fan of those TA tips . You've been getting the complete fun factor out of this car .

I get my car back tuesday and I haven't driven it nearly as much but every time I read one of your posts --I want to drive mine now!!

nice touch Jason, everything look OEM and bend together! This will be good until the full GT2 conversion!

I have a set of used Techart tips in VGC if anyone is interested - $500. Car looks great Jason. Do you still have splitters to protect that lip paint?

Gene - Jason sold his splitters. See post 43. https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...=131157&page=2 You probably didn't know there was a secondary market for these already - collector item.

Heard he got $225.00
