Yup, it's just about perfect! I'd rather it didn't have the PCM telephone handset though. It seems a little silly.
I'm seriously thinking about DSC Sport. Aside from that the only mods I'm considering down the line are ducktail spoiler, Fuchs and aerokit front bumper. My gf REALLY wants me to get those!

IMO still anchors on both accounts compared to other well made wheels....
But a nice classic look... no doubt.

Question, are the Fuchs wheels sold by Suncoast authentic Otto Fuchs wheels? Judging by the price it doesn't seem likely..

do you plan to track the car a bunch? If not then to be honest the Rep wheels sold by some of the sponsors here will be fine IMO. I like the looks of the otto fuchs the best, the Porsche fuchs are nice but expensive...
if you have a budget may suggest the wheels here... many have them and haven't seen any complaints.
scroll down a few inches in link provided.... I like them in all metal finish actually. Or could get real retro and color match the centers to match your car color. (could be neat and seen years back on some cars) The saved money go with a Ducktail, front chin spoiler of some kins and maybe some lower springs. Done with round one of mods....

The Otto Fuchs wheels are a bit more expensive than what Suncoast is selling, though I have no idea if those are authentic Porsche wheels or not.
No need for springs, the car came equipped with Bilstein damptronic coilovers!

Bilstein damptronic coilovers + all the those options.... that's a nice find... again congrats.
Those wheels in the link come in various sizes... the ones on the front page just easiest to see visually etc so noted to view those. They come in 19's etc... but the design seems a bit different in the 19s.

Those wheels in the link are available in the completely wrong size, and I doubt will clear PCCB's. I'm undecided on tracking the car but I have no problem spending money on an authentic set of forged Fuchs wheels.

The Fuchs sold by Suncoast are not the real ones. Real ones are made in Germany with forging and you can visit their website to get more info. They have a few importers here in the US to buy them from.
