Default Pics of My Car With Aerokit 1

Just finished putting on the AK1 front bumper and rear spoiler with Sport Design wheels.

Here are some pictars!

I still need 2 have a body shop adjust the hood/bumper fitment and finish bolting it up.

Also put on the 997 turbo brake ducts and they are very big, bigger than the GT3 cup/RS ones i believe. Agency Power headers and EVOMS intake also went on.

things that still need to go on:
- GT3 MK.II front splitter
- side skirts (as soon as i can afford em)
- IPD Intake plenum (2morrow)
- H&R wheel spacers (14mm front 10mm rear)
- supercup towhook

^ you know what's funny marc,
i've gone thru two bodykits now, and both times i neglected to put skirts on ! :hides:

here's a pic of the much larger 997 turbo brake cooling ducts. they were only like 12$ up here in canada where porsche epicly rapes on parts pricing, so in the US i'd imagine they're damn near free.

Omar, it looks fantastic with the aero kit and the sport design wheels. Nice job!
I picked up my sideskirts from DPS for 350 plus 99 for the hardware. I think they actually only charged me about $80 for the hardware. In retrospect, I should have bought the skirts from them and the hardware from Sunset...still, $430 for OEM sideskirts wasn't bad. I just bought the splitter from Sunset for $54.
Your's looks so good, I'm going to visit my paint guy this week, to see about getting mine painted.
Where did you get the brake ducts?

That is funny, I have the opposite going on,my car came with the flared rockers and I really want to do the Aerokit II, I really want GT3 but don't think the bumper will match the Aerokit side skirts

Omar,
Great job. As everyone else has said - side skirts are the next modification. (Althought getting rid of the "Mazda" on the license plate frame might be a priority.

Looks great Omar! Not to beat a dead horse, but the side skirts are a must.

omar looks great. Did your front bumper come with center plate removed or did body shop do it? I need one with hole but only see filled centers on ebay.

Mark, did you get skirts from dps recently. At that price I will defintely pick them up.

looks really good, congrats. I am thinking in going to the same wheels. Where did you find them and I'm guessing they are 18's?

Maybe not as glamorous as side skirts, but I'd also do the bumperettes.
