It's true. Not sure on the timing, but Fikse has been acquired by a new group and will be back "on track".

It looks great!

What are those small holes (??) around the rims for? They don't look like screws?? Or are they? (like a 3-piece or 2-piece wheel)

^
wheels I think are being offered by Speedware at $4500 per set in 996-3 fitment

exhaust - custom made and used a 996 cup carbon rear bumper

(btw - congrats on guards red inbound... fantastic)

Oh, you heard about that:-) I'm pretty excited but the wait might kill me. It seems like there's a track day that I miss every weekend. Now my buddy just picked up Dan's car in Los Angeles and I'm chomping at the bit.

I need to pick up another set of wheels for the track. Yours look really good. I like the center exhaust but I think I have roberga convinced to sell me his old Fabspeed muffler bypass pipes until I can save up some more dinero.

Your car looks just awesome!
