Default Mods Installed - Photos

I finally got the mods installed which consisted of H&R coilovers, F/R LEDs, LED side markers, License Plate LED, 6K lights for the Xenons to match LEDs, and PSE-Style Quad Exhaust Tips.

I decided to not slam the car down too low and opted for slightly more than the H&R springs-alone drop. I'm really happy with the look and handling.

A few pictures. Next up will be the GT3Tek front lip and diffuser and Getty Ducktail, and the Porsche Sport Software to enhance the Tiptronic shift and throttle response. TPC Turbo later than year.

Thanks.

The wheels are Ruf replicas from ROTtec.

Gonz, IMHO the Ruf wheels are the best looking ever! I had the real thing on my 993 C4S years ago, but can't justify (nor afford) $4000 for (what for me would be..) an esthetic mod. That said, I still want them! My only concern with the Rottec wheel has been if it is true and balanced well. How do they drive? Did your tire/wheel mounting guy have any problems with balance? Thanks!

The wheels are great, no issues and balanced perfectly. I love the setup.

Looks a lot better than when it was a stock Carrera.

That wheel style is one of my favorites, and looks even better with the drop. Tastefully done mods. Congrats.

I'll be the first to say: 997.1 wasn't mean for LED lights. Now it just looks extremely riced out.
