Nice car! Love that you deleted the electric spoiler and went to a standard grille!

Wow, rear wing removed (I think). Of course no issue at US speeds, but you don’t see that often. Awesome car!

Thanks! I have all the original parts if I ever decide I need the wing back on. I personally love the clean look of a 911 with no spoiler. Something about the perfect, uninterupted slope of the roofline into the decklid just gets me. :-)

Was the grill something you made yourself or bought somewhere? Looks awesome.

It was on the car like this when I bought it. I believe a shop up in Colorado made the grill and the reflector replacement. Sorry I don't have better info! I bought the car from the family(friend of mine) after the owner passed away. Unfortunately, I don't have all of the documentation rounded up yet.

Thanks a bunch. I always felt the bronze/gold and red was a good combination. Only problem is those wheels get dirty quick and just don't pop unless clean.
