@SoCal911t Sure, it was $1k to prep, paint, install. I also had them patch the license plate holes, and cut open the front air duct. Other than that it was pretty much a straight install.
@AR_Motorwerkz Ya know, I actually really liked the look of the TechArt, but there's a couple things that bugged me. First - it extends too low, so i scraped on everything. The other thing is the lines didn't quite match up to the body of the car because it extended out a bit more.
Fun fact: I did a poll recently on my IG (Aero vs TechArt) and TechArt Germany voted for their bumper. Sadly, they were the only one. lol
Didn't I see your car on Wheelie Cool Videos channel on Youtube? Are you still running the muffler bypass pipes, or did you switch to something else? That car was seriously a screamer with bypass pipes.
Met few other 996s at the beach this morning and then we drove a few of the canyons in the Malibu area. Good selection cars today with quite a few C4S. six Turbos and one GT2!

Thanks! Trying to keep it simple and clean…and slightly different from a typical 996 😅

Nah, that’s not me…I have Fister Stage 3 Fabspeed MaxFlo mufflers..but I’ve been told it does scream 😂
Went to a small VW meet, then came back and cleaned out the radiators and installed a turbo lip. Love the way the 40Jahres look with the Turbo lip instead of the C4S lip.
Made an apple cider run. The day was gloomy but the drive was a pleasure as always. I just finished suspension work and this was the first outing of substance. I'm still drooling over the new look.
The Baumans are not actively squeezing apples anymore this year; they stopped at the end of March. I won't get fresh mash until the fall harvest, so I settled for frozen cider. I may be showing my bias but I swear it puts the food store stuff to shame. Or maybe the roads I take to get there add to the flavor. Plus their apple butter with sassafras is a delight. http://www.baumanfamily.com/
I run the same 9/12” wheel with 245/315 RT660. Wheels are just good old OZ. I had no issues in the back but had some front fender liner rubbing in a deep turn. Mine is a 2001 c4 so I had to run a 315 in the back due to the awd system. The car is on Ohlins and has a bunch of Tarrett stuff as well.
