Stripes on TT's - Not for Everyone
#16
OP, very, very nice...you've done a great job of recreating what may have come from the factory. The front lip is a nice touch. If you like the "R"or a "Z" or a "7" then keep it...99.9999% of people don't have no clue, some of which are Porsches owners. Plus, "R" means "Race," Right!?!?!
So,Yes!!!!
However, I love this version too...LoL, Kidding!!!
Cheers,
"LugNut"

I think it looks good. I have fundamental problem with adding weight to make things look like carbon fiber. The beauty of CF, for me, is that it is usually lighter.
Reality is the car isn't a lightweight and the added wrap is pretty insignificant overall.
It's cool you have all your cars with similar mods. That is until you commit a crime in one, and everyone know 'whodunit'.

Your post reminded me of an evening when I shared with my lovely 5'8" 130 lbs wife that my Porsche's performance was effected by her errr, ahhh... "ballast." The very second those "unwise" words left my face, I fully expected to be sleeping on the couch with "LugNut"...

These are GT2RS OE Replicas and the specs are below. Rear offset could be better, but I have hubcentric spacers to make them flush.

Rear alloy wheels: 19x11" - Offset ET56 (+5 from OEM)
OEM Specs are:
