Modding is very personal. Not for me. I would never slam someone who wants to do it (within reason of course ). I like the aero kits - looks like a Gt3. Only thing I would consider is exhaust and maybe wheels. Stock 997.2 exhaust is too unassuming. PSE may be best of both worlds.

I can tell you for sure edgy01 that "modding" or not "modding" is NOT a maturity thing...Such a comment displays your ignorance. I know plenty of successful, well educated, mature people out there that like to mod... Personally I buy my toys/cars to enjoy and don't spend my days worrying about loosing some $ on resale or worshiping the mexico blue budha... (I do like that color though....)

drink up....

Concours level events are great , appreciate and applaud those that have a passion for keeping their cars stock...but have less tolerance for some (yes some not all) that carry the ugly elitists attitude that being a purist is better, smarter, or "more mature" then another car enthusiast.....pathetic that some hold this view...
Loose or lose?

Default ahhhh.....

ahhhhh!...... Quite the infantile reply Mr mature. Too funny... the more mexico blue paint you sniff the more credibility you loose. You got bounced of 6speed (forum with some well respected members in the car world....) for being a jackass if memory serves me right... happy to see you smartened up.


next.....

Whoa, mickfluff, back off on the hostility a couple of notches. The OP posed some very specific questions about why people on this forum didn't post pics of their mods and asked whether they had issues with Techart parts. Responses were direct, but fair, that moddiing is not a big deal here for many of us.

You were the one who made sarcastic comments about "the useless list of replies", "buying a Porsche ...... yawn", "the cool aid served at the most recent concours event" and personal cracks like "ugly elitist attitude", "pathetic views", "displaying your ignorance", and "being a jackass" for example.

Looking back at the posts, no one else got personal about their views on modding or modders, they just gave their opinions. Those opinions may be different than yours, but that's the reason for discussing things, right? Stop being so defensive and make your points.
