What a pain for a first timer. Not sure how folks do the whole car... what a skill. Looks good from 1 ft away but no where near perfect.
great job again!

Nice ride!!

[QUOTE=06RUF997;13962159]Picked up the 997 RUF Kompressor conversion from Miller Decals in Atlanta, GA. Changed color from Meteor Gray to 3M Gloss Fiery Orange and Matt Black. Jim at Miller decals added his own personal touch with the RUF stripes on the sides. Can't believe it is the same car. Very happy with it!

Touched up the wheels on the C4S with the two-step touch up kit from Suncoast. Amazing how many "nicks" there are after track days and autoXs and some spirited driving on our Texas toll roads.

Maxton Design. It was around $200 shipped from the U.K. (cheapest front lip by a few hundred dollars).

Mine did come with a small crack on the side. My dealer was able to glue and reinforce it so unless you know exactly where to look you would never know. But for $200 I really couldn't be happier. (Maxton hasn't returned any calls or emails about the issue, but to be fair I didn't open the box to discover it until two months after I ordered it.)

Curious: I need to do the same. I didn't see the touch-up paint on the suncoast site. Did you need to call/special-order?

A few more black details and you're good to go mate. Looking good, just lacking a little black to match the wheels

Do you have any front angle shots of the car, best looking front lip I've seen so far and the price is killer.

Thanks, very helpful. I was checking it out on their site -- looks like they offer it in "textured" black, gloss black, and CF "look" -- Looks like you went with the "textured" black, and omitted any stripe (seems they offer a white or red stripe you can tape onto the front....) How easy was the lip install? (Did your dealer do it?)

Trying to figure out if the whole thing is worth it... It does look good on your car!
