In preparation for spring, I am wrapping up some exterior mods on the car

I have added new wheels, modified the rear bumper to euro spec, rear window spoiler painted to match, head light rings and front Spoiler.

Looks good but its missing that ducktail. I have kept all the original parts as well. I am going for more of the Sport Classic Look. Thought I would share to give others ideas

Nice looking car. You'll never lose it with that yellow.

Great car, time to get rid of the old badging on the back as the next step

how did you modify that bumper? the looks great since a true eurospec bumper would have an extra wide licence plate area that the north american rear plate wouldn't fill in...

ps. your rear end looks really great with the painted diffuser and the other details.... a getty ducktail would look perfect given the current setup.

Do you have the bumperettes kicking around somewhere ? I may buy them if you want to rid them.

As for the badging, I actually dont mind it, and lean more toward liking it. If i ever do a ducktail, I will change it.

The bumper is custom done, I removed the bumper and the silly 5mph impact pieces on the steel piece under the bumper.

We then took the bumperettes and cut them to use as side structural support. Lay fiber glass over the top, a little compound and sanding to smooth it out. Lay down the color and clear and it was done. Then spray the lower for the GTS look, Riza Autobody in Des Plaines Illinois did the work and the owner Vlad is a fellow Porsche enthusiast.

Car looks great. Love Speed Yellow. I am toying with getting black Stone Guards too.

btw what are your wheel specs? they are very flush front and back.

Front Wheel Specs: 19"x 8.5"/+45 offset 5x130 bolt pattern
Rear Wheel Specs:19"x11"/+ 40 offset 5x130 bolt pattern

With H&R 15mm Spacers in the rear and 7mm spacers on the front.

do you find that it sticks out past the fenders about a cm?? maybe my eyes are tricking me but the wheel lips look about 1 cm beyond the fender front/rear.

Motams

Yep it does stickout but not the wheel lip, its the rim protector on the MPSS tires that sticks out.
