I live in the Pacific Northwest. We had an unusually 'warm', dry day today so I took advantage of the weather and some twisty roads!

Say whaaaat? Whoever did the work did a good job. Maybe it's the angle of the photo but the rear end of your car looks like it needs about 3" of spacer. Do you have symmetrical wheels on your car?

Man i miss sebring on cold days like this in mid-atlantic. Ill be down in march in the rv for the 12hr lamans race. Probably wont bring the 996 though. I may be down there again this year for a 24hr lemons race. Anyways to get back on topic here is a pic of my $4500 roller that i got running for a few hundred dollars . Its a 2000 c2 with a fair amount of suspension and maintenence upgrades. Also a pic of the rv if u see it at the track stop by and say hi.

If that's a genuine MK2 aerokit deck lid you've already made your money back!

that would be great but i doubt it, i wonder how to tell? Kind of new to this game. I bought the car to do an ls swap but fixed the cracked motor. It runs great now for a 198k car. Its got a bunch of decent track parts like gmg tie rods, rss dog bomes and gt3 arms. Ill probable upgrade the bilstien b4 struts and just drive the wheels off it.

Yikes thats a big hole! Great work fixing it though!

Don't go doing a Hoovie and blow it up though...

As for the wing, open it up and if its got a part number on the underside on the right, its genuine! Make sure you report back, i'm curious.

I think what the car has is a factory aerokit ll package. I guess thats a 6k set up, not bad. Not sure when it was done. It did have a glass out respray so i assume all that was done at the same time.
