951 (w/19's?) at 2005 NOPI Nationals
Not sure if the owner resides on this forum, but this is the first time I have seen the new OEM 19" wheels (or at least that is what they look like) on a 951.
A little lunchtime "eye candy".

Aside from the mesh everywhere that car looks a lot like Sam Grant's car. Not as nice but similar.

i like it. the grill thing is too much, but aside from that i like it alot. i love the 997 wheels. absolutely love them. better than the older boxster S wheels, which i also love the design of. i was thinking of putting some on my 951, and now i have an idea of what they'll look like. Sealed beam conversion would have been better, but the sleepy eyes are ok. it would probably look better with projectors. but i like the squared off look.

I like it.
I like it.
Yep, it looks like the "Gutter Guard" Special Edition 951.

Ew. In so many aspects.
Loose the chicken wire mesh crap.
While clear corners may look good on a modified MR2 turbo, it's just wrong on a Porsche.
While I like the look of the new 997 wheels, they're just not right - if one must upgrade, at least stay within 10 years of the model!
The bling! bling! Lazy eye popup headlights are just plain stupid, especially with the $15.00 Autozone fog lights there in place of regular headlights.
The coffee can exhaust has got to go, as does the 968 side molding.
Betcha it's not even a turbo! This is NOPI, afterall...
(But it looks like it does have the 951/944S2 type nose panel)
No sir, I don't like it.
-Z-man.
PS: Then again, what do I know - I've got that ugly PORSCHE light thingy between my taillights!
(Previous owner's only 'mod' to the car)
