curoswiss - very nice and tastefully understated. I really like those wheels. What size and make are they?

Edit: never mind. I clicked on your RSR link.

Have to admit that I'm mostly a fuchs kind of guy, but those wheels look great with the car. Nice job!

Thanks guys. Here are a couple more pics. I'll see if I can get more of the 996 style tail.



Before spacers... The rims are just temporary until I choose the permanent ones.

Looks very nice.

If you get some wheels with the proper widebody offsets and widths and are interested in selling those send me a PM.

Looks like a great job. To complete the backdate, I would respectfully suggest using period-style rearview mirrors.

Looks sweet. Here's a vote for Fuchs -- maybe the 9x11x17-inchers Moses has championed.

I'm curious; what's the reasoning behind the tail? Why not just go with a traditional ducktail?

Or is that the GT Racing one that takes uprights and a wing? If that's the case, then I'm on board with the idea.

I run a regular ducktail:



But I've come up with a way to add uprights and a wing for track days:





I also bolt on a chin piece for track days.

(Sorry to clutter your thread with my pictures, but it looks like we're going for something similar.)

Jack - Yes you are correct it's the GT Racing one that takes uprights and a wing...

I'll post a pic next week after I've mounted the wing. It looked awesome when test fitted can't wait to see it now.
