Beautiful. I can't figure out why i like it on this example, but this is one of the only implementations of the GT2 wing i actually like.

Everything is custom built-to-order. We can build this same set in 5 lug as well

Two questions:

What are the weights on these wheels in 19"?

What exhaust tips are those?

We'd have to run the 19" set through engineering to get the exact specs. The 20" 3 piece are mid 20's. A 1-piece option in 19" would be in the 19lb. range for the rears.

Secondly, I unfortunately dont know what exhaust tips they are but if you shoot me an email I would be more than happy to try and find out for you!

Looks like Agency Power trim. More about the aesthetic than functional...

As mentioned above - Agency Power GT2 style. I have the same so feel free to PM me with any questions. Also, I saw that the car's owner is selling the wing (on 6speed).

Regarding the exhaust tips, they look like Fabspeed black chrome ones to me (I have the same ones for a 997.1) but my eyes might be playing tricks on me as the inner tip looks slight larger than the outer one. Dunno.
