Thanks,

Gorgeous. Your car really does have the perfect look. Thanks for the video! the matte black wing goes really well with the white. Did you also wrapped the lower rear fascia in matte black? I think the gloss black that the stock aerokit comes in would look much better in matte. Thus, I'm thinking of having my aerokit wrapped with Xpel stealth while the rest of the car gets wrapped in Xpel Ultimate.

Thank you. I didn't change/paint/wrap anything besides painting the wing.

Would love to hear your review of stock wheels/pzeros vs R101's w/ PS4S since the R101's should be a good bit lighter than the stock wheels.

I actually don't even have my car yet and I don't plan on driving on the pzeros. I had ordered the HRE's so that I will have them ready at delivery. I will have the dealership switch the wheels out for me before I drive off the lot. I've also ask them to paint the stock turbo wheels black and will have them put Michelin PA4's on them to serve as my winter set. Thus, I won't have any experience with the pzeros.

I also plan on getting my Kline inconel exhaust, manifolds, and ByDesign intercoolers installed pretty much right away so I probably won't know how a stock 991.2 TTS will feel since I will still be in the break in period and won't be able to push the car.

A man with a plan sounds like me.

Techarts here; was able to get the stock alignment setting after the springs were installed. Eibachs do not lower very much, Nanook can chime in here...
