Saw it yesterday in person. It was sitting on the sidewalk in front of the shop. Still really not impressed for the amount of money that was dumped into it.

BUT you insist you'll hook me up, the next week I'm in there and you blow me off when attempting to discuss the 'hook-up'.... that sucks for customer service... I'll go elsewhere now.
Totally our bad, infact I'm heading out to get temporary key rings so this will never happen again, just talk to me personally and I'll hook you up, I'll start off with 1st fill your gas tank till it runs over the side(know what i mean) and I'll take care of the bill. As you can see it gets hectic trying to take care of this many customers, but I promise I'll put you priority

Tell him I said no problem on $299, and don't worry just because the price went down the skill won't change, I'll still give him the $500 tint job

Come on Ian, you know me better than that, we don't 1/2 @$$ nothing "period" the Porsche has been lowered with H&R's 1.5 in front and 1.4 in rear, it already has to come in our driveway at a hard angle, it is damn near 3in from ground, we made sure to leave the front lip not painted which of course already has a few minor scrapes. As far as the fittment wanna tell the Multimillion $ manufacturer the fittment is wrong, it was "SPECIFICALLY" designed for the 996, might get a ringtone after that, refresh the dome RPM aka RIMPROS.COM "Big on Bling, Bling, Small on Ching Ching"

The wheels don't look like they fit correctly. You can say all you want about how they were made for the car but it doesn't look right. Maybe it's the angle, maybe it's the shitty cell phone pics, who knows, but if you are posting pictures then people are going to tell you what they see.

The 996->997 GT3 idea was just fucktarded. The eyelids and front bumper are a poor man's attempt at making his car look like something it's not. It's a ricer move and a disgrace to the Porsche marque. Is he going to put GT3 badges on the back too? IMO he should have went with some respectable RUF or TechArt parts.

Finally, what the fuck does my car have to do with stating my opinion on a public forum? You posted this shit to begin with so deal with it.

Honestly, you're just splitting hair for no reason man...I've seen the car in person and it looks damn good.


Sounds to me like a case of someone being jealous of something they can't even begin to think about affording

I love how you people make assumptions about other member's finances just because they don't like a riced out p-car. I could tell you I drive a Corvette and Mercedes-Benz, have a six figure salary, paid off house, and I just spent more money than that bucket is worth at Thomasville last month but I'll let you keep on dick riding for a few more posts. Go ahead, it amuses me.

lol.

Let me put it to you this way. (not directed at vmspionage) People on this site will rag out a v6 mustang that has changed everything over to make it look like a GT or a Cobra. Here is my point... How is this any different?

I saw the car yesterday, even from 5 feet away the fitment of the rims and bodykit does not look all that great. I would have no problem calling the Manufacturer and telling them that their mold sucks and that the parts are not fitting the way they should.

You can say im jealous all you want. Yeh I'd love to have a porsche, but if I had one, I still wouldn't be retarded enought to sink 31k into some rims, a bodykit, tv's, paint, and "custom" interior paint.
