Congrats! Great mods.. and I love the fact that it's not a low mileage garage queen.

The clubsport rear wing really looks great on NB 993s. I just recently removed mine for a change of look, but imagine that it will be back on soon enough.

When JoAnne has a 993 all is right with the world.

Owning a 993 will improve your health.

Ask me how I know.
