Default Rufus gets some minor upgrades: an ear-ectomy and a butt-lift

I just picked up Rufus from the body shop where he got Ruf mirrors and a MA Shaw turbo S tail. I am so jazzed by this minor change.

Looking good Steve.

Did they paint the screws that attach the grill to the spoiler?

edit:..ah it looks like you're using your stock grill?..nice

Love the mirrors Steve. Rufus is looking good. Now stop posting pics. I was happy a few minutes ago when I came in from the garage. Every time I get on here I rationalize mods. What a great support group we have going.

Thanks Andy and Tony... except we can all blame Tony for putting together the MA Shaw TTS spoiler group buy.

obchuck: they are 19" wheels

that's just pure bad ***... ol' fartus!

i used to hate arena red... used to...
why is it that your arena red 993's are the ones i seem to love? damn.
& steve you just seem to have the right-mod touch. even though i don't like 19's on 993's... i love 'em on the wide *** ones.

& rufus is pure rufgasm!

ps: i'd like to do a rear bumper mod that would enable me to get rid of my ette's & not have a gap.... ruf thought that out obviously. very nice detail. it fits! as do the new pinned back ears (mirrors).

Looks so sweet! One question: Do the RUF mirrors restrict your vision or is the perspective the same as the stock mirrors?
