Default My 997 C2 finished... for now.

My 07 C2 in atlas grey metallic with custom interior and HRE Monoblok P40's, carbon fiber cold air intake, Milltek exhaust, Bilstein PSS9 suspension and I cheated and had the brakes painted yellow. Too poor for PCCB.

Can't decide what to do next...

The car looks great, I like the interior color scheme and the rims look awesome. Next on the list is to participate in a local PCA DE event and get a taste of what this car can do in a safe environment.

Nah, that car has too much bling for a track event.

Well, since you can't have sex with it, driving it is probably your best next move.

Almost over the top with the interior, but kinda cool really - gorgeous exterior.

That car would look sick with either an Aerokit or GT3 nose on it. Easy DIY after the spray and a 10x multiple in the looks dept relative to cost.

Throw some OEM 5mm spacers in the rear to flush out the rims to the fender line and accentuate those hips !

Exterior looks amazing. Interior is a bit flashy, but only you see that...so to each his own!

Great work!

Very nice looking car.

But IMHO, the exterior look is at odds with the custom interior. They both look great on their own. However for such an interior, you might want more bling on the outside as well, maybe an aero kit of some sort. Or a few more touches of yellow on the outside to tie in the interior theme, maybe paint the 911 rear emblem in yellow. Or heck, just paint the whole car Speed Yellow.

How about a spoiler, front lip, tint, yellow gauges, Rennline pedals.
