Figured I'd share a few pictures of my car since I've been on this forum for quite some time and rarely post. I'm typically lurking or spending time in the classifieds, but with this covid19 going around, I had some time to do some social distancing and do a decent photoshoot of the car with no one around in a sweet spot. The car itself is a 2013 Carrera S which I acquired a little under 1.5 years ago. It spend around 8 months in various body/performance shops in SoCal before being completed (for now).
Anyways, let's cut the bs, here's my version of a "street cup" car.
Surprised you didn’t do a .2 GT wheel to finish things off? Smaller diameter makes a noticeable difference and love mine.
I have to say, I’m normally not a fan of builds like this, but this one is exceptional imo. Somehow everything works very well together, doesn’t look tacked on per se (tho the wing is quite something). Well done, wouldn’t do it myself, but can appreciate all the hard work and effort that went into this.
Impressive all around, even the custom license plate frame. Are the Porsche letters on the rear closer together than normal? Any particular template you used for that?
As per the above suggestion, the GT wheel in alcantera is on sale at Suncoast at the moment. You can blank out the malfunction and remove flappy paddles easily. I think you will be surprised at how it changes the drive, but your .1 wheel does look really good.
If there is an award for the highest spoiler, you my friend are the winner. How tall. How many folks can eat off it? That would be fun to add to the photo shoot.
Would you be kind to share the source of your parts? Maybe a total bill?

It is a APR 67" carbon fiber air foil, with custom built uprights, and a Vorsteiner decklid.

Thanks guys. I didn't want to bother changing the wheel at the moment. I loved the feel and just needed something to tie in with the rest so just opted to get it reupholstered to match the color scheme.
Porsche letters are the standard ones from suncoast, though I did put them on my self, can't remember If I spaced them out less.

I've never been fond of the stock diffuser on the 991.1S and would love to swap to something like that.
The rear bumper is made by Duraflex. The fit and finish is absolutely terrible out of the box. It is a 2 piece design which includes the diffuser. I wanted to do something different without completely going the GT3 bumper route, so I opted for this one. My body shop was not pleased with the amount of work they had to do to perfect it, but in the end it turned out fantastic. Only thing that didn't line up perfect once the body work was done was the fender liners in the rear.
