When 993 owners saw the first 996.1 aero cars they immediately got jealous and started body shaming. Dang! “Those GT-1 headlights are so not proper Porsche, darlings.” [sniff, harumph]

That’s like other super models shading Cindy Crawford for being too tall and curvy…”and that mole…hideous!”

Lovely. Any chance that this car lived in Provo, UT at some point?

Another 1999 Aero is on BAT. This looks like a nice one and might be one to watch. Has sport seats and a LSD. Ocean Blue.

Installed NOT using the 3M tape, it's industrial glue and it ain't ever coming off. My body guy didn't want to stand behind a tape job, although it seems to work but for how long?? These are just cell phone pics with old headlights.

old headlights before

Looks good . If you had to do it over again would you change to a different rear wing option ? I like your front lip and rocker covers plus the diffuser but that wing I am not quite sure . Not knocking it just curious . My car is black also .

Good question. I like the soft look of the slightly raised wing now, but I also like the 'Taco look wings' too. All in all, I like it's subtleness with the current setup.

Looks great, Nick!

My car just got paint on it this weekend, should hopefully be back together in the next week.
