Recent drive up to the Foothills of Tahoe. I have had this car 3 years now as a daily driver but it still shocks me how smooth and razor sharp this car is at the same time.

Thanks,

Thought it could be Etna Blue but Meissen Blue also wears very well on your 997. Don't see enough blue 911's and it's one of Porsche's best color groups.

Hatzenbach,

Another beauty as well. I want to add the screens on the intakes like yours. Did you install them and if so how difficult?

Thank You :-)

I got the screens from Zunsport.
They say you can install them from the front, but in order for it to look good you have to take the bumper off and install them from behind
I think there are DIY out for that, it's not very difficult, the biggest PITA was to remove the two sliders (behind the headlights) that lock the bumper to the body, the rest is all just taking fasteners off and unplugging a few things

Wow Reto, that looks awesome, thanks for sharing.
”Some modifications” seems like an understatement :-)
Any engine mods too?

@Reto your car looks amazing! I love the look of the rock guard on a light/subtle blue.

any way you would post a shot of the rear end? I really want to see more of the duck tail. What brand?

Thx a lot!

Here is a picture of the ducktail. It is a Moshammer ducktail.
