Default RS.1 Conversion to RS.2

Not a bad Result.

I also really like the colour.

looks good.

I priced out doing this changes.. it would be about $8k with oem parts and paint.

Makes a lot more sense to just get a .2RS and get the upgrades too, unless you already has the .1RS

If you notice the Interior it is visible that it is 997.1

yeah, no stick on front fender flares either. I like the Cup bumpers - can we fit those to non-Cup cars?

Yes front bumpers will fit.. but 2010 cup car rear bumper wont fit since it based on the GT3RS (widebody).. all pre-2010 cups where based on narrow body GT3

ah yes, the stick on front flares.....

The front bumper still has washer nipple holes so perhaps it is just the .2 euro street bumpers cut for CUP tow hooks, or CUP bumper cut for washer nipples...

Looks to be well done..... but no sense in body updating without the 3.8L jam and gearing..... like a girl with too much make-up on......

Yeah, I though that it was well done as well.

Initially I thought that it was an RS.2 then I noticed the 5 Lug Wheels and non fender extensions.

Apparently there is a Company in Europe that is doing this conversion for Carrera's!!
