Before and After

As some of you may know I bought my car last fall and over the winter months, while it slept in my garage, I was busy picking up parts for the first stage of the Slippery Slope.

Here's the fruits of my labour:

Beautiful transformation! That new stance plus the new shoes gave your WB a whole new attitude.

I think the most impressive thing is the flicking of before and after shots.
Must be a tech guru.
the BBs Lm do look very nice.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm really enjoying 993 ownership.

Those are just simple animated gifs so no real tech wizardry there. Although I do confess to being a bit of a techie.

Yeah it drives much better, still not quite where I need it be but I think after this winter when the rest of the suspension mods are complete it will be.

Here's the list of mods:

-PSS Coilovers
-Walrod Bushings
-DDM HID Kit
-Walrod Gauge Trim Rings
-Black Porsche Mats with Silver Stiching
-Reverse Mounted 18" BBS LMs with Sumitomo HTR Z III tires
-MotorSound air filter cover

Over this next winter I'm going to try to complete Stage II:
-M030 front and rear stabilizer bars
-Front strut brace
-Euro turbo bumper
-Euro clear corners
-Wide Ovals

I've been keeping my eye out for a set this entire summer but haven't been able to find what I want. I'm looking for the stock tips wide oval with the rolled lips rather than the FD equivalents. Seems like they rarely come up for sale though.
