Default 80's modern interpretation

Put on new shoes from Wheel Enhancement (great service from Dave) and black stone guards from Suncoast.

I don't like a lot of the mods I see to 991's, too many are Ricer and done by guys that came up owning hot rod Civics. But yours works and works well and isn't over the top. Congrats!

IMO, the Fuchs look wheels from the 80's just didn't "scale up" very well to 19" and 20" wheels. Somehow they just look disproportionate.

Looking great! The 911-50 wheels works great, and the stoneguard is a great tribute to the 930

Thanks everyone, yes my goal was the 930 when I first wanted to be a Porsche owner and my goal would be to restore one some day.
