very nice. Good to see another white 944 in NC. Is that factory paint? I just started using my rotary polisher on mine and all I can say is WOW it cleans up nicely.

I just got a set of club sports myself, but haven't put them on the car yet (they're for the race tires).

Good to meet you, there is actually another white turbo here in Pitt county, kind of surprises me.
The car is mostly factory paint
Several years ago I had the front repainted and they did a great job.
My son back into it in the drive and put a small dent in the fender, only way to get a
good paint match was to paint the whole front.

Yep, these are off a 996 carrera
Front: 7JX17, offset: 55. Tire size: 205/50/17. Part Number: 996 362 124 00
Rear: 9JX17, offset: 55. Tire size: 255/40/17. Part Number: 996 362 128 00
I got a great deal on these off EBAY, if you watch you can pick a set up for $600-$800.
