Agree LWFW is must have. Good news is it's an easy retrofit so it really just comes down to how worried you are about originality/resale.

I wish but no chance.

Considering whether to try to delete it again, although it may be too late. Thanks
17lb weight saving. Matching factory delete will be somewhat involved and it won't be original spec. Either get it and leave it or order factory delete. If it were me I'd delete and I suspect radio delete cars will be more valuable down the road to the extent that matters to you.

i was also a little shocked and surprised by this combo , BUT hey.......
this is an original 991 R in the official Weissach area ( where the design department is placed ) ..so they might know what they do ..

As rare the 911R is, that color combo indeed will make that car even more unique.

I would guess a factory car. Maybe testing various colour combos?

I Think that looks super cool. Although maybe better suited to a GT car than a "sleeper" type car
