I like on page 5 setup with part# 417 or 426.

If it is a street/race setup I like the idea of removing item 426.




Fits my SC and it is pretty light.

Not a fan of big tails on narrow-bodied cars, either. But if you like it, go for it.

Seriously? Different strokes for different folks. It is all about personal taste, i.e. blond, brunette, red-head or whatever.

But I beg to differ having a tail on a narrow body car.

All those tails look okay because they are on race cars. Look pretty blingy on a street car....another opinion.

I got to go with the red head. Amazing what you can do to an SC!

I smell RICE

Sure...Blondes, Brunettes and Red Heads, they all can look smokin hot! BUT, we've all seen an older woman with way too much make up, distorted collagen lips and dressed way too young for her age. You cant help but chuckle when you see her at the same time feel sorry for her because she could look good for her age but only looks like a clown. I find the same with our vintage 911's.
But, hey if a giant disproportianate tail looks good to you on a 911 nearly four decades old...by all means go for it!
Put some Turbo Twists on it with adapters, fix a Home Depot fire extinguisher to a roll bar with hose clamps, go with the big amplifiers in the trunk and some thumpin speakers and be happy!

Another vote for "less is more" here for narrow-body cars, but to the OP: if you like it, who cares what anyone else thinks? I wanted a narrow SCRS look, which probably horrifies purists.

Those 964 imgs are a bit misleading in this context, as they are mostly side profiles. The only one which I looked at twice is the red '14', but it's the wheels that make that one IMO

How about a tail like this on a wide body SC. Anyone have a picture?
