Default C2S winter mods… :)

Recently picked up this C2S and decided to do some mods over the winter…
  • front bumperette delete
  • Turbo S ducts
  • PSS10's
  • Gary Stratton Ducktail
  • OEM Sport Classic wheels
  • Leather 3 Spoke wheel
  • Gerts Aluminum pedal set
  • Red seat belts
  • Changed yellow calipers to red
  • Fister Stage III's w/ Wide ovals
  • FD short shift kit + Golden Rod

Now just have to finish the interior over the summer… just thought I'd share! Cheers!!!!

I like your combination of retro and period correct mods. Looks great!

Mike, the wheels are the OE 19" Sport Classic wheels off the 997 Speedster.

Just my opinion but I'd rather have the original 2S split grill. Love all the mods you've done.

If you have a dark or black interior adding alternate color leather wraps to the door cards, a leather boot over the existing shift boot and matching gauge rings and key way facia really make the interior nice. Also adding a led to illuminate the ignition keyway is a plus as well as adding a time delay door lock function so you never have to think to lock the doors when you enter the car. All easy kitchen table stuff to do.

Seriously? Are you for real? Because you friggin nailed it!

However, it does need 1" moar low. (On second thought, maybe not, could be an illusion). And I might suggest some black details to help balance out them purdy wheels, such as black-painted doorhandles (cue Real Housewives of Wherever voice: even though it would look SOOOOO G-model/964). Maybe a black fenderguard?

Looks terrific!

Locks great! Not sure why anyone would want a ducktail, euro bumpers and 3 spoke wheel and 19's on a white C4S though

Love the split grill myself, but nothing I couldn't swap out over a few beers with a buddy. ;-)

Thanks… It could come down a little but wanted to be conservative and drive on the wheel/tire set up first… I have the black stone guards, but just didn't look right? For some reason just didn't work on the 993WB… Thanks for the compliments!

Looks like you got an al kosmal rear deck grill as well. I purchased one for a stratton ducktail that's getting painted right now. Car looks fantastic, can't wait for my ducktail to be done.
