The car looks really good, I like that rear bumper a lot!... only thing is my neck hurts from trying to see the pictures correctly.

What's the new project?

Which style spoiler is actually on it? The first 3 have one and the last pic has a different style?!? At least that's how it looks from the pics...

Looks great! I just recently ordered a bumper that looks close to the rear on yours. It looks awesome on your car! What size and offset wheels are you using?

WOW, looks awesome...that's a very unique MKI 996 KEEP IT!!!


I'd never be able to get away with that ride height where I live. I would seriously scrape the bottom 10 times on a typical drive.

+1 on the nice rear bumper. Beautful 996 I can't believe you want to sell it but whatever turns you on is the key I guess.

I guess I am the oddball. I like most everything but the rear bumper. It just doesn't look right to me. Looks like an add on rather than integrated into the rear. IMHO

I agree with you Doug. It doesn't look like it fits well. I'm sure it looks better in person.

The problem with major mods like you have done is that you drastically cut your potential buyer pool. The majority of buyers are looking for a mostly stock appearance as it came from the factory (with perhaps factory options).

You'll have to find a buyer that shares your same taste in styling and adjust your price accordingly.
