Did you use OEM grills (screen mesh) for the front bumper or aftermarket?

Shardul - can you post pics of your rear? I am in the process of doing this clone to my 997.2 also. OEM GT3 .2 wing and Cup car .2 front. Not sure what to do with the rear.

Your car looks great!

OEM, I also installed radiator grills in the wheel well to protect the back side of the radiators:

They look like the ones from Tire Rack. Didn't know they offered them in black - maybe he plasti-dipped them to protect the finish through the winter. Looks like a great winter setup though and decent room between the spokes to clean accumulated snow out of the barrels.

Inquiring minds want to know

Thank you, I was pleased with how they turned out. Straight from tire rack. They are offered in silver or flat black, at least in the 18" sizes.

Thank you,

All our wheels are custom built to order available in any color and size not to mention they're all built in the USA and extremely light compared to OEM wheels.

19x9 - 19.7 lbs
19x12 - 20.8 Lbs
