I've had Baldhead Cabinets for about 5 years and have nothing but great things to say about them.

yes, I'd also love to see pics of your car E46/997guy - maybe over on the "GT3 Picture Thread" .. as I have the same ABM color.
It's been almost 2 yrs now & I still love looking at both the GR & ABM next to each other in the garage. Plus I have a white CTT, so a nice ... 'merica Red White & Blue theme going.

I'm also in the market for garage wall cabinets soon,... and even after going thru this entire thread (again),... still not sure which I will choose.

Another +1 on seeing more of your ABM car.

I'll take some proper pictures of it and post it on the GT3RS thread. Here are some pics of the RS and the cabinets.

Wow, I don't think I've seen an ABM decal delete before. ABM + silver wheels + decal delete = perfection. Props for keeping thread on track with relevant pics too. Stunning garage!

Very sharp cabinets and garage! Are the black mirrors stock? Love the color combo as well.

I had the mirrors, end plates and front bumper grille painted gloss black and removed the decals. I ordered new OEM silver wheels.

Yes it was. I wanted a more toned down look. I do have a 1/18 model of a Blue/Red RS in my garage too.

Did you also add a matte black lower side rocker on each side of the car? It's reflecting light in the picture above.

I remember back when I first bought mine, Rennister Pete had a thread where he took a 991 side skirt and retro-fitted it to bolt up to the 997. prevents a lot of gravel spit-up from harming the paint along the side.

I ended up doing PPF film all the way down the side, so I'm protected (for now),... but still thought that was a cool idea.

No. That came from the factory like that. GT3 RS (and wide body 911s in general at least from 993 on from my knowledge) have that black plastic rocker panel and the narrow bodies don't.

997.1RS has a flat rocker, 997.2RS shares the 997.1GT2 Rocker from 2008.
