Looks really good! Although just shot the hopes that everyone was having of just removing the Spyder badge at the base of the roll hoops, looks like the panel has a recessed border around the badge.

Yup, I think the Platinum coated wheels I chose will go better with the GT Silver. (Says the guy who loved the black wheels on his polar silver 996 TT :-)

Black out the lettering and you're most of the way there.

this car "begs" for a bright color

I know I'm biased....

but Red, Yellow, one of the bright Blues

though I'm having a hard time seeing it in Green (Viper, Signal, etc)

The more I look at the real world pictures of the Spyder, the less I like it, especially the front bumper.

I really like the 981, it's beautiful and I have/had 2 987's. But something about the humps just doesn't look as flowing as the 987's humps, almost like they forced it because they had too.

I really, really think they should have gone Speedster on this, I would have bought it regardless if it didn't have PDK.

I think once I see it in person I will change my mind but the black one does not look that "special" and this last one looked rather bland to my eyes....but those pictures sucked too.
