Finally had a chance to do a photo shoot before a cars and coffee with this year's aesthetic upgrades:
+ 5 & 10mm spacers
+ painted rear bumper for a GTS look

Your car looks amazing! What suspension do you have? The spacers make a really nice addition.

Thanks!
Factory Sport PASM (P17) so its -20mm over a standard Carrera and -10mm over the S models.

The stance is perfect. I think that's why I like the techart/eibach springs. The stance on mine is similar. The car looks great. I'm looking into spacers for mine too...

Thanks! Even the Carrera S looks like its running on 4x4 suspension, so a drop is a must.

I got adaptec spacers they all have a little hubcentric lip so you shouldn't have any vibration. Pretty happy with the stance with pilot super sports the tires look pretty flush.

Yes, it is PTS Pastel Yellow. It carries over to the gauges and a few internal trim pieces also. Everywhere I stop it draws onlookers.

True about the 4x4 look. I have a base Carrera without PASM. You should have seen my car without the Techart springs. I have PS2s and I'm happy with them, but will switch to Super Sports when they wear out. Do you have 305s in the back?

And yes 305s, would look weird with 295s since the rim is 11.5"
Plus I'd like my car to handle when I take it on the forest back roads

Love your car. Very, very nice. Love the SPASM stance. I was just driving behind my brother earlier today, who was driving my 997.2 C2S, and I was admiring the tight little rear end. I was in my 997.2 GTS, which has the nice and meaty rear; I realized how the narrow body rears are clean and "pert" in a way the wide body cars' rears aren't. And since the rear "valance" of both body styles are exactly the same width (I've measured), painting the C2S's center section black helps to widen the rear visually — but just the right amount. It's a nice balance. Genius. Good job! Again, really loving your car. The color and wheels are just so well matched. Awesome.
