Default Finally found "the one"

After a bit of searching, i ended up with this 99 996 with 117k on the odometer. Its had the ims, rms, coil packs, dome already. It was his weekend toy car, and really seemed ro love it, but just didnt drive it much anymore. There are a few things i have planned for it, just to make it more to my taste. Already ordered a set of 19" wheels, as these arent bad, but i prefer the bigger wheels (sadly, these tires still have nipples on them).
I would like to do something with the lights, just to delete the orange.

Say, what wing is that back there?

As far as updating the headlights, I'm with you. Headlights without the orange "yolk" really upgrade the '99's nose - here's my '99...



Congrats on an awesome acquisition.

I am in the tampa, florida area. Not sure what i am doing with them. My hopes are to put track tires on the wheels and do a few track days. Not sure if i may just run those tires, and see how they do
