Default Slippery Slope Photo

About a month ago I posted a “new to me” 993 thread. I mentioned a few upgrades that I had planed and a couple people asked for a “slippery slope picture”; well here it is! I got the hard back sport seats from a fellow Rennlister (996 GT3 hard backs), wheels are Ruf Dallas and the rest of it came from Girt (except the 15’ predator guarding my $hit)
19” Ruf wheels with S03’s
GT3 hard back sport seats (to be painted to match)
Turbo S aero kit (front and rear spoiler)
Turbo S ducts
Euro front bumper
Euro rear bumper
Euro turn signals
Girts FPB
Red seat belts front and rear
Aluminum pedal set
Rear tray
Euro side markers (clear)
Litronic headlight kit
Aluminum handbrake and shifter
993RS front and rear sway bars
PSS9 kit
Trumpet horns
Motor sound air box
Large oval exhaust tips

I plan to document the work I do with before/after photos and tips to help others.

But where does the Predator go?!?

I'd be curious as to how you will fit the GT3 seats as there has been quite some discussion and controversy on this board as to whether they fit in 993s without significant modifications. BTW you do realize that the Euro side markers will require you to drill openings into your fenders

"But where does the Predator go?!? "

He is putting it all on the car and he is my pit crew for DE's.

David, I have been talking with a couple people that have done it and the seats will fit with minor mods. I know about having to drill 2 holes per side on the side markers. I'm still giving it some thought befor i take the step. I'm thinking 50/50... posser or finish off the euro touch, as I am ditching the rubber bumpers front and rear. Havn't made up my mind on that one yet.

okay, just wanted to make sure you are aware. my euro 993 has these sidelights and I like the look...my US 993 doesn't have them and I just can't bring myself to do this mod (yet) and I've already ditched the front and rear bumperettes. did the airhorn upgrade too, which is also a good value mod. please keep us posted on how your seat install goes...I'm sure there are many here who would be very interested.

good luck w/ the mods...and please post pics when you're done

What kind of seats are you replacing? I'm looking for some stock black 993 seats.
