No im doing the wheels in standard silver. I will leave the accents red for a bit longer but I need to removed them when i have the car PPF'd but after that I may do a small GT3RS door sticker or silver graphics. I also think CF upper halves on the mirrors and no lipstick with the rest red could look great too.
Did a trip over to the Spa 24hr, through the Dolomites and back to Germany earlier this year with a few of my cars and some friends. Factory decal delete and full Manthey Racing upgrades on the 4.0 litre. Without a doubt it’s the favourite.

Very cool cars... glad to see someone reminding us all to drive our cars even if they aren't worth as much as yours

sweet, interested to hear more about manthey upgrade for 997.
the Manthey kit for the 4.0 litre includes the following:
MR coilover kit Clubsport 3-way adjustable incl. top mount front + rear
MR friction plate set for LSD
MR short shifter
MR ring and pinion (shorter gear ratios similar to Cup Car)
MR Exhaust Upgrade (I went with the removal of the side and rear mufflers, basically a straight pipe setup - yes, it’s loud but there’s no drone).
Surface Transforms rotors
The above completely changed how the car drives and handles. So much better now, far more direct on turn in and more stable when loaded up in corners. The revised gearing means the top speed is reduced (I never used the VMax anyway). Far better to have it setup for shorter gearing for track and hill driving. The short shift reduced the throw by around 50%, it’s crazy how much better it is to drive with the shorter gear throw and revised gearing. More progressive feel under brakes with the Surface Transforms rotors particularly noticeable when trail braking.
I also have the Manthey Racing kit being installed on the 997 GT2RS at the moment as well. Very similar to the above.
