What kept you from stretching the 996's legs?

Effort mostly, it's packed away in the shop and there are a couple things in the way to get it out.

Good grief, weather is the least of the reasons Vancouver isn't Alberta...

The slatier the better I say!

Offense taken.

There's also the over abundance of bad drivers.

I've unfortunately joined the slat club myself... 😒

Why is that?

Please be specific...

Many green 'N' (new) drivers, with little experience, driving cars they have no business driving.

A common modification for 991 owners is the RS skirts. Some like them in their raw black plastic look and some like painted. At first I ran the black plastic look then I had them painted. Not long after I had them painted I realized I liked the black look more.

I found a couple of old photos of my car when I went on a California road trip with some nice shadow effects that make the RS skirts in black look great! Even the stock wheels look fantastic in these photos.




Painted for comparison

Black look for me; figure the paint will get all scratched up getting in and out of the car.

Yep!

My take on painted:
-Costs more
-Non OEM paint job won't match the car, and this will burn your eyes if you're obsessive about that type of thing
-They absolutely get rashed. The front of the skirts (behind the front wheels) have had the paint sand blasted off from spirited driving.

Apologies for the low res photos. They look so crispy and clear on my phone but once uploaded they got a bit grainy.
