Maybe the possibility of splitters to balance out the rear spoiler? Either that or go back to stock decklid to make it a little leaner. Looks slightly high in front also, but it could just be the angle. I don't mind the wheels, but you could probably do better. The MY02s are my favorites.

Here you go..... down the slope:
1. Lower the car to "proper" ride height
2. Euro Turbo front bumper
3. Turbo S scoops
4. New wheels (preferably black )
5. Repaint calipers

One more opinion,...

1) PSS-10 coilover kit

2) Different wheels (personal preferences)

3) Turbo front bumper needed to restore aerodynamic balance with that Turbo S rear wing.

-Ditch the wheels. Get MY 02's or Fikse FM-10's or BBS LM's.
-Add RS splitters up front.
-Lower it with either PSS-10's or HD's.
-Rinse.
-Repeat.

I'm still searching for mine but this is what I would do in order.

1. Lower the ride height
2. MY02's or Twist
3. Get rid of the wing I think the C2 look much cleaner without
4. Euro Turbo front bumper
5. Big Red brakes
6. HIDs
7. Exhaust

After that drive it and keep it clean!

Nothing says aggressive like replacing the headlights with .50 Caliber machine guns...

1. Fister Exhaust...don't just look aggressive
2. A dark wheel but not black, maybe the OZ Alleggerita HLT in Anthracite.
3. Concur with the window tints.
4. Concur with the lowering.
5. A duck tail!

Enjoy,
--Joe

I like the rims, in fact I was wondering who makes those and where did you get them? Lower the car and get a turbo S bumper. Post a side shot of the car for us.

993's always look nice - a car you smile and wave at. The only ones that look aggressive are the ones with big wings (CS/GT2), low stance, and big 2/3piece deep dish wheels. Ruf's look mean as well.

Personally, I'm going clubsport look with my narrow body. But I think the most aggressive and also high on the cool factor are the Rauh Welt cars. So get bat wings, go low, go wide, and get big low profile deep dish wheels.
