Default My 2010 GT3 mods

Added some more mods to the GT3. Had the center console, upper door trim, and dashboard trim strip painted Guards Red by BumperPlugs. The parts came out great and compliment the interior.

I just got my OEM rims powder coated black by American Powder Coating in Auburn, WA. They did a great job. Haven't found after-market rims that I liked, so I just got the OEM rims powder coated for now.

Enjoy the pics

Nice touches. I like the wheels in black. Really goes in line with the rest of the exterior. One hell of a nice car.

That is very nice.

On a side note, I am hoping someone will make a snap-on "3.8" emblem/decal for the sides of the GT3 wing (to cover the factory "3.8" indentation.)

The emblem/decal can come in black color (for lighter color cars), or silver color (for darker color cars.)

That can be a neat accessary.

Regards,

Very Nice!!! The wheels look great. I wonder how they would look on GT Silver. Photoshop anyone?

Looks great. Thanks for sharing.

I do hope that some business will make a ""3.8" emblem for sale (or at least a decal, shouldn't cost too much to make and market it, I guess.)

That looks awesome! I'll have to take a good look at Gisele ( she's Meteor Grey) and consider which color would make it look as nice as yours.

Considering MJones reported that there were a mere 256 total sold in the US so far, that's not much of a market pool. Thank god Porsche has to homologate these cars for racing, otherwise we wouldn't be lucky enough to get the chance to own them!

Nice look with the black wheels and red interior accents! I just got back to WA with mine and thought a lot about what to do to the interior on the drive from CA.
