A Few Updates for Kermit & decals: Champion 171 Wheels
 

Hey fellas just wanted share a few recent updates on Kermit (don't worry... no 4.6L stroker:D).

Visually we opted for a set of Champion Motorsport's super-light 19 inch 171 Monolite wheels:

Now if you look closely at the exterior... you'll see that the decals are not exactly visible. We actually wanted to go for a "ghosted" green and do away with the traditional black and go for a less is more... So we turned to forum sponsor, Premier:

Next up we decided we were going to be using our 996GT3 seats in our 996 GT3 project so we opted for the 2010 Carbon Bucket seats. They're a somewhat heavier than what we had before (they have the thorax airbags etc...) but overall they're certainly more of a "comfort" seat. Since we're putting a lot of miles on her that's not necessarily a bad thing. I still think the 6GT3 seats are more supportive and better for the track....

In with the CF sport buckets:

Very nice - why are there so many songs about rainbows, oops sorry, my inner Kermit took over.... looking great!

Great looking wheels (but I have some self-interested bias). As you know, I think they would look phenomenal in a finish similar to the HRE satin black powdercoat. The ghost decals are pretty trick too. I am trying to convince myself the kid's college funds would be better spent on a 997.1 GT3RS 3.9.

Looks great alex! Love it sans decals!

Very clean looking wheels Alex!!:D

But that's an even Sweeter looking Speedster hiding off to the side!! :cool:

When you mentioned buying a Speedster it never really clicked what you might be referring to.... til just now!!

Ummmmm... YES !!! Hand the keys over to me for a week or two.. Thanks for offering. When can I come and pick it up? :D

Looks like a completely different car Alex.

Lookin smooth Alex - looks even better in person.



The Speedster is very clean too. Bob recently did his magic and performed a spotless/swirless detail on it as well.

Unbelievable set of P-Cars in person...

Looks good. Definitely breaking away from the norm.

Thanks man... I really like the color so I guess "more" of it was the approach;) Never been a big fan of decals so...

Thanks RiA! She looks so much better after a full bath:P Poor girl was neglected.. I'll pop some pix in below...

Thanks mate!

Hehe... I thought you just liked BOOSTED cars tho:D

Thanks Peter! I'll post some pix below in a mo'.

Cheers Casey!

Thanks sparkhill... You were first it has to be said:D I think if you do home-college instead then the 3.9 would be a good idea right:)?

Thank you sir lol!
