Exclamation Updates on the 993

While spending a solid amount of time away from the car I slowly gathered the parts I wanted in order to complete the look to my tastes.
Tomorrow the cars goes in for a needed detailing and I'll post further pics then.
In order to make the LM work it looks like I'll have to lower the front a tad more. I haven't had a chance to take it around the block to see if the rear tires rub (275 on 11").

Here is what I did/had done:

Respray front bumper (still waiting for new seal to come in)
Install headlight washer delete
Install OEM Aerokit sideskirts
Install trunk with CF RS wing
Install Ruf rear bumper

Comments welcome, enjoy!

The rs tail is a nice touch and makes the ruf bumpers more at home. Well done

Looks good, but is it me, or are the tires undersized for the wheel widths? They looked pretty stretched.

Very nice! Personally, I like the Ruf wheels much better than the BBS and I would ditch the Ruf hood emblem and replace with a stock emblem...

Your porsche looks really nice with the addition of the rear bumper. Is it a narrow or wide body?

Thanks for the positive comments guys.
Yes, the tires on the LM aren't as meaty as they need to be due to their aggressiveness.
As for the hood emblem, I did not purchase it. Ruf in Germany evaluated what I have done on the car and sent it to me
