Default New Iforged Seneka Wheels and Rinspeed front spoiler, Pics.

Finally got my baby back after having Iforged Seneka Wheels installed along with Rinspeed front Spoiler. Also had a guards red "S" placed on the rear. A personal touch I wanted to add. I have to say that I like the look of the Rinspeed spoiler. Gives a nice look the car. I had some great complements already from friends. Also had my car detailed along with removal of swirl marks that I didn't have to time to get to. Lastly had my alignment checked and tweaked to PCNA specs. She rides and feels awesome. My complements to Stace, John and crew from Black Horse Garage in Bridgeport, CT who took care of the additions and detail. Until then enjoy the pics.

Very nice Jay. Always liked the Senekas.......a little on the heavy side but great looks. What's the finish? Looks black in some pictures and gunmetal in others. Any thoughts of narrowing the gap between tire and fender now that the molesting has commenced?

Thanks for the complements guys. The finish is Anthracite Grey with the Chrome reverse lip. They are a three piece unit and yes I love the way they came out. Gives the car a great look. About lowering the car I will wait on that for now. It's hard enough not to scarpe the front spolier with how low it is. Here where I live in CT., in the Litchfield hills, I would lose that front lip outside of a month if I lowered it any further.

997D you were the one that inspired me to research the Iforged and front spolier.

Looks great DJ. The only other mod that would appear 997D has done would be ride height. I know thats a tricky one based on road conditions in certain areas and the clearance issue. I've always liked the visual appearance of the lower ride height personally, but not the implications that it brings with it.

Looks great. I am partial to the black with black wheels myself (on my Cayenne). It looks like your back wheels/tires fill out the wheel wells nicely. Did you go with the factory spec 295 35 19s tires (or something wider) or do the rims have a different offset than factory?

Statman, the wheels and tires (19inch) are stock spec. The look that they give are from how the wheels are made with a reverse outer lip. And yes I have to agree they do appear to fill out the wheel well very nicely.

Love that front lip!

Just checked out the Rinspeed website but found no fees. Do you mind sharing what they charged you for the part?

How's the fitness of the front lip? Direct bolt-on? Any gap between the lip and car? Was there any caulking used?
