Shameless is right. How dare you? Just kidding. She looks nice. Can you take a couple of pis of those seats? They look very comfortable. How are they on the lower back?

They look great! I want those on my cab, are they legit OEM or are they the replicas? Like others have said, the red brakes look awesome on white cars.

Yeah, that's nice...I'm thinking of getting the same wheels for my white cab

Those sport seats would look sweet with the backs painted white

Absolutely NO need to apologize!
Your car looks fabulous.
My car hopes to look as clean (and driveable ) one day.

Very nice cab w/ 5 spokes. These wheels look like they belong on all 993's

Would also like to see the seats.

Sweet looking car! I have been thinking about doing the 5 spokes for my car. I think you just made up my mind.

Thanks. They are OEMs. I found them on Craigslist here in Los Angeles. He was asking $1500 and I offered him $1000 and he took it. The front tires were is great shape. The rears are fairly worn. The red calipers were a $50 DIY 2 years ago and have held up great.

I agree with the white seat backs. I am on the fence. It would be an easy mod and not that costly. Perhaps in August when I go on vacation I’ll drop the backs off to be painted.

I have to admit that the coupes lines are beautiful. But, I love having the top down. With the weather the way it is in Los Angeles, I never put the top up.

I do like the seats. IMHO they are no more comfortable than the stock seats. These are heated which are nice on the cool days with the top down.

Looks great with the new wheels. Why are people apologizing lately for posting pics? Isn't that one of the reasons we're here? MORE! MORE! MORE!

There are a lot of great looking wheels on 993s, but it seems to me that a majority are opting for the MY02s. They're reasonably priced and look great on a 993. I think we should start a picture thread for 993s with MY'02 wheels. I'd especially like to see any that have been re-finished in other finishes/colors. Sorry for the hijack.

I just picked up another clean set very reasonably from the 944 board for my cab... Pics to follow, probably in a couple of weeks.
