I feel it looks perfect and stylish. Been a loyal kbcarstuff.com fan so I ended up purchasing a new setup for my c2. I'll send a few pics if interested.

My Xenondepot H1 philips 35W 4300K "crystal white" headlight kit and also a H3 3000K "racing yellow" foglight kit look amazing and really helps me see better at night 3000 kelvin is great in thick fog plus they look neato' on my black 993.

SWEET! I'm going to install them on the weekend and see if I like it. The
true hesitation is, because my car is a US import, the fogs are now my
day-time driving lights; they're on ALL the time! But it's nice to hear that you
dig that look on a black car, and it's a functional mod.

True!! I'm rocking that look right now with my 996TT twists and love it! But
man, you're right, a set of 19s would really be next level!


I'm hijacking this killer thread with my rambling..haha..PICS FOR CLICKS:

Some more close-ups of my 19 Ruf wheels - hope that helps the comparison with other brands.

Here's a comparison of an Original RUF wheel first (Hans Picture) and my ROTtec RUF's. Not the same angle but close...

good pictures but its hard to capture the differences - more obvious if the cars are side by side. :-)
