Just wanted to share some pictures of what I recently had done. These were taken in my driveway (not a photographer).
MODS: Bilstein Damptronics RSS Rear Toe Links OZ Alleggerita 18's Michelin PS2's Porsche 5mm Spacers in rear Cargraphic Exhaust (newer style) w/black tips TechArt Lip, Side Skirts, Mirror Inserts Black stone guards Exhaust trim painted black Also had the front painted due to rock chips and such. I'd like to say thank you, again, to Sharkwerks, RSS, and Cargraphic. When I had a problem with the older Cargraphic exhaust, they went above and beyond to get me a newer one...for free. Additionally, I have to say a BIG THANK YOU to Ultimate Audio in Orlando for doing all the work and making sure everything was perfect. Unbelievable customer service on all parts. Hope you like. http://www.planet-9.com/images/style...ttom_right.gif |

Car looks fantastic ! The whole kit so far looks perfect ,I really like the way the side skirts and front lip with the Bilstein Damptronics just sets this car up ,the rest is Gravey ..I can Imagine a Gt-3 rear bumper on this car and it would be OTH!!!! :D

Thanks for the compliments. The rear might be an option. However, I do like the way the side skirts flow into the the line on the rear bumper. I didn't even notice this at first. My step-mom thought I put a new rear bumper on because it flowed so well.

One of the nicest Caymans I've seen!

Thanks everyone! I'm thrilled with how it came out. The new Cagraphic exhaust is amazing.
And Alex, I'm still waiting for my stickers... No hurry, though. |

Blue/silver works for me. Thanks.

rock guard
Very nice!
Where did you get the black rock guards? Did the original just peel off or did you put it over it? thanks. |
The guards were made by someone locally who does work for the shop I use. I honestly don't know who made them.
They are applied directly over the stock ones, which are pretty yellow. I debated pulling them off, but figured I'd try over stock first. Makes it easier to line them up. The first set we put on start to peel back from the front side, so we put on another set. So far, so good. If they peel off again, I'll probably take off the stock ones, then try again. Problem is, the TechArt side skirts cover the lower part of the stock guards, so the skirts will have to come off if I go that route. |
One more question...:rolleyes:
I have a silver C and am going to get the same OZ wheels. My question is what color wheels are those? Is that black or the anthracite? I think the anthracite looks like a lot of the others gunmetal color, which I think looks good. However, if I am going to trim the rest of the car in black, like you did, would that mismatch wheels to trim look odd. Yours looks matched. Thanks for your guidance. |
Mine are not black. I bought them used, and the receipt the gentleman had from Tire Rack lists them as "Titanium Tech"...not a color listed on their website. So, I'm actually not sure what color they are according to Tire Rack's listings. I think they are the shinier anthracite, not the darker matte color.
I think the darker matte would look good on your car, though. And as much as I like black wheels (have them on my H2), I feel that all black wheels look like they get lost in the wheel well. The black wheels on my H2 have silver bolts/accents that help. I had all black wheels on my S2000, and it looked like one big tire. I feel like people forget that their tires are black, so you already have something that matches. I debated black, but I'm glad I found something else. |
That is exactly what I am worried about. This makes me look closer at an off black/dark silver. The black wheels sometimes look like a "black hole". I think you nailed with the "one big tire". The gunmetal/anthracite shades gives it some contrast.
Somethings to consider. Thanks for your insight. |
