I actually have a straight pipe exhaust + tune on the car, so it's pretty loud and get pop and bang all the time wich is fun.
GTR sounds great though, but i guess you don't buy a turbo for it's sound however it can be improved big time. Planning on getting a IPE full exhaust.

The stripes look fantastic.
Is there a specific kit for the 991 or is that custom?

It was custom made using a mold to get the exact specs of the exclusive stripes from the original

Good info, thanks.
Can they produce those for sale and remote installation by a shop?
Just curious.
Kind of considering how they would look on Agate Grey Metallic.....would need to think about the proper color.

Cool, thank you.
Others here might also be interested in that visual mod.
Very good looking, especially on black.

I don't like it. Don't get me wrong, I like black. All my cars are black (and have been for 20+ years), but I don't like all black/murdered out. When you don't have any contrast, you loose the details. I also don't like it from a functional perspective. I would never intentionally do something to reduce the light output/night visibility.

no worries. Yeah i agree, I honestly did it because headlights were having tons of micro scratches inside the lense and were becoming kinda cloudy, so the film got rid of all the imperfections. It’s a removable film anyway. I can always remove it

I don’t know. I think it looks pretty cool all blacked out like that. I’m not a fan of black cars because of the high maintenance and the difficulty in keeping them clean. But I think that car looks pretty good.

I like it





had mine tinted Motorsports yellow for a bit but every time I drove very fast it would lift a bit and wouldn’t stick right so I had to remove it
