Beautiful car with nice wheels. However, I personally think the black side vents need to go though

time to think about those white vents, the rims used to be black but wanted to go on a much "neater" look for now

I love the vents... if you're changing anything I'd keep the vents and move to black wheels somehow, even consider black wing. I've always loved white cars with black wheels, but I can understand that's not always popular opinion.
Cool.

Welcome and congrats Were you looking for a while ? How many miles on the beast ? Looks like you got a stunning looking example. The vents are ether way for me, I think I might leave them for a while and see if they grow on me or grow old. It's a quick change ether way. Enjoy.

Do you tend to scrape the underside since its lowered and you're in PI?

nsurg -this car actually had black wheels before I painted them silver to add a cleaner look to it.

smb - GIAC is great all the info coming from people seems to be true, I will
definitely have to look into new intercoolers to compensate the tune.
But as long as you drive without pushing too much the stock ones
are good to 6oohp as what i have been researching tells me.

Ecs - yes coming from the 993 i was trying to look for a possible upgrade
thanks! maybe we could look into upgraded intercooler options

Malexgcab - Not really only coming out of the condo parking

Thanks Guys!

Looks great. I like the Volks but they look like they are sitting pretty deep in the wheel wells in the rear. It could just be the pics though. Are they flush? If not I would look as some spacers to get that flush look. i like the black vents as they break up the car a little bit. Especially if you go with a different wing with black end plates. Thanks for sharing.

love the car mate, white is the best on the 997tt (mine is silver )

agree about the wheel offset, maybe a spacer? especially if you don't track

I do take the car on fun runs and a few coming trackdays, what spacer size would you recommend, i was planning to change the tires (Nitto) aside from their being far from the other brands in performance the side well is not as square. The Volks were ordered specially for the tt offsets so ill check the tires and if it still has that flush look then I will install the spacers.

A carbon wing has always been on the list just looking for the right one
