Thoughts on two-tone the car?

Bavarian, I don't think adding 2 colors would make it any better or worse (or faster or slower on the track). My own race car is single color simply because I'm too cheap to spend money on paint. But I clearly see race car as an expression and it can be any color scheme you want, the wilder the better. I would personally try Gulf colors, but starting with silver is a little tough. I'd probably look to add orange. Also, see Mark in Baltimore for his color scheme on a silver race 993, which i think is extremely nice and tasteful.
My comment was not on color, however. It's that front bumper and valance... I think it's a bit too much. RSR cars didn't use that. Than again, if it solves a specific problem for you and you can describe (to yourself) ow it solves it, that's all that matters. I'm about to put a large ugly spoiler at 55 degrees vertical on my own trunk lid. And I actually know why.

I'm going, quite literally, with a big *** ghetto ugly aluminum piece screwed to a trunk lid as soon as I can find a spare trunk lid (or maybe before). That's because all the fast people are doing it in CSP and I'm a lemming. Seriously. After that i might need to get a big *** front lip as others claim pretty serious downforce on the rear wheels even at autocross speed. We'll see.
PS. Having said that, I like duck tails. Than again, I've liked tail for a while and been chasing it for about 25 years. Ooops, that's another topic for another day

BOY, go back and watch your Simpsons and Sponge Bob or whatever heck kids watch now days. If you want make a reference, don't use a children's cartoon. It makes you seem juvenile; unless that's where you get your daily educamation.

Vroom-Vroom? It seems like you practice that sound a lot don't you. Is that the sound you make while you drive your cab around? Maybe it will give you the impression it goes faster. Make sure the top isn't down or you won't hear yourself going "vroom-vroom." Seriously, I expected more from a Porsche forum, grow up Senile13. I think you forgot your true age, surely not 13, though you act like one.

bavarian06, as per your original post, nile13 gave you his feedback. It might serve you well to grow some thicker skin or you're not going to be happy on this board. BTW, spend enough time here and you'll soon realize that Mike's Simpson's reference is much more mature than some of the other hysterically juvenile nonsense that we are apt to post here.
Oh, and in keeping with the immature theme, two-tone on a 993 looks like baby poop.

Will someone please post a Hurt Feelings Report for bavarian06 to fill out? He did not like Mike's Simpson's post and would like to let someone know that his feelings got hurt.
