Well I think you hit a homerun with this combo!! Absolutely gorgeous in my opion. This would be my choice for an RS and maybe seeing another if they come out with the 998 as I am on the" list"!

Very good looking combo, classic and pure but still agressive and sporty, I love it, great choice!

Nicest RS combo I've seen, much more classic and understated than the assorted sherbert colors. I don't understand why silver is the least popular RS color. Of course I'm biased since my 08 GT3 is Arctic as well.

Best of luck. You might want to order a silver emblem from Bumper Plugs. I did and it looks great. Now if there was only a way to change the emblem on the steering wheel without blowing the airbag!

it's a NEW option, you can have that color matched to car at the factory, then you shall have the luxury of clear film it!

a while back, someone asked about it (USA version).

great color. i think the black decal transformed the car. after owning 30+ silver cars, i hated them. but the decal really made the car nice.

I love the car- dont get me wrong,- i was thinking of doing the same thing with my GT silver GT3.
Carbon Center rear wing. Carbon Side mirrors, carbon front vent and some kind of HRE, BBS black
or silver with black, dark grey -or gunmetal centers,
but the black wheels seem to be dominating the picture. I was thinking a HRE or BBS with a silver lip with dark grey center or black center. anybody else think the wheels are abit overwhelming?
(could be just me) Truth is that is a drop dead gorgeous creation on your part. Mine
is a VERY minute critisism. and the only reason I bring it up is my plans to follow your work.
Nice job.

look closer...the base of the rocker still has the same exact plastic piece along the entire length

great looking combo but I am with MJS....RS is obligated to have a wild color

Looks like I have a BIG decision to make! I think it looks aswsome. What color for the center caps, how about the RS in arctic silver?
