*side note, why do our sunroofs have that flap in the middle? Always wondered about that. Your photo reminded me. Thanks.
probably to reduce buffeting

Ahhh, yes. Full frame seems to make all the difference. Great pic.

Those bumperette's on these cars are such a travesty. They totally ruin the front end on this car. Shaved is just sooooo much better.

That's a great pic BTW.

love the shave!

Ryano, have you done the painted bumperettes in the rear yet? This will help to balance the car's fresh look. Eric at Bumperplugs is your man!

love the look! are you considering clear signals with the new foglights? and are you getting the TTS fogs or just new clears?

my thoughts on the splitters are extremely subjective since i just installed mine, BUT i went with them over the RS ones/euro bumper with lip because i honestly believe they are they BEST compliment the 993 nb front

love your colour, absolutely love the wheels as well!
but can i see more pics of the car please? would love to see the wing
