That’s not my car. I put it just to show the stripes on white. I don’t have black guards. In fact I don’t have any guards since the entire car is PPF’ed.

Agreed! Where to buy that lower lip and how to fit it to a standard carrera bumper? The stock bumper looks completely tame in comparison.

Thanks.

You need the aerokit bumper to fit the sport classic/speedster lip. The GTS comes with Aerokit standard so It was just the lip in my case.

How was the fitment of the Getty Design ducktail? Can you please share as I'm looking to also get this done.
Thanks

just my opinion only, but just the GTS looks a tad plain due to there being no design under the ducktail wing itself, have you considering putting the Carrera Gts badging back on ? or even doing a quick photoshop? imho only, you know i am a huge fan of your car.

Those are excellent photos. (the pro set) For those wondering, it's more than a decent camera, this photographer understands how to use it as well as high powered strobes to get these effects.

Sport Classic is my all-time favorite 911 - your "look-a-like" version is fantastic!!

So good. This is exactly what I'm doing to mine when I retire it from the track. You beat me to it and in a wonderful way.

You may need to pick up these now:
