Yeah, seeing your car was what finally got me off the fence. I’m actually trying to see if someone will color a set of GT3 caps. I asked bumperplugs but they said they don’t really do caps anymore.

I’m out near Gainesville.

Awesome! I have a tiny bit of rash on one rim that I'll need to fix. I reached out to Apex about paint color and they suggested Duplicolor Magnetic Gray Metallic and Motorcraft PMPC195007325A as the closest matches if you want to DIY it. You're not far at all! Always down for a drive and your 964 is

Thanks! I am out to The Plains and Marshal and points further west into WV almost every weekend. One car on Sat and the other on Sun, lol. Let me know if you want to go sometime.

Went to the local GT meet yesterday, mostly to see if any other 996s would show (no) and to look at 997s because they are so rare to see now. Still rare, there was only one 997.2 RS. Then 20 991s and a couple 992s. There was a Gunther Werks 993 there though. That was super cool. Also included a random shot of Atlas being Atlas.

Fantastic! Will shoot you a PM for next time. I thought about going to that GT car meet but couldn't make it in the morning and ended up going for a 150mi drive in the early PM. Looked for squiggly lines on google maps and ended up having a great time north of Point of Rocks and Harpers Ferry. Foliage was at its peak. That Gunther Werks is out of this world. I saw it at Katies C&C. You hear about how wide the font is but don't really know till you see it!

Here's mine. Well here are the guts anyway. LN Engineering re-sleeved my 3.6 to a 4.0, with Nikies, I've got K1 rods and JE Pistons. Basically this engine is going to be brand new. Targeting XMAS 2022 for first start. Oh and I splurged on a whole new exhaust too but that's a secret for now. Feel free to follow along on my channel! Oh and Jake Raby is my "phone a friend" throughout this whole build. How cool is that?

LN Engineering 4.0 with forged components

Wow you have a lot of catching up to do. That’s a fun way to spend a couple hours.

The red wing on the Basalt Black 996.2 is a factory 996.2 wing I bought from De Jeeper.
