    Ya, I really like the 996 gt3 front bumper but they only sell it as a whole bumper not a lip. Maybe I can get one in the near future
    They sell a lip.

    996.2 GT3, the lip fits the 996.1/986 front bumper.

    Im okay with this. You could just be some rich kid driving round in a stock porsche thinking he's the ducks nuts. But instead you're chopping in, doing work yourself, learning things, and breaking stuff. That's ballsy, and I like balls. I'm keen to see what rims you choose.

    I like the build so far. I would keep the window sticker, based solely on the number of negative comments it has received.

    Thanks bro, do you guys know of any good looking wide wheels that are pretty cheap? I am thinking of getting some cheaper wheels until I have the funds for some nice 3pc. I don't want any reps though.

    Thank you I appreciate the feedback. There are too many porsche purists who are against the stance scene. I am going for the perfect balance of form and function since I still enjoy taking this car to the track or AX.

That's fiscally impressive for a 16 year-old, but beyond that, kinda meh. Hopefully you'll get this project turned around into something dope. I know it's possible.
    Maybe I can get you to like Porsches. I've done much more to this car than just lower it This car will be pretty dope soon hopefully, I am already breaking necks

    Let me know if you guys have any mod ideas.

    go about 2-3 inches lower before anyone cares about this build thread
    that's pretty mean to say for a first car and first build thread sir. pretty sure when you bought your car it was high and not stanced. and by the way, looking at the thread right now, people seem to care about the thread. if you're going to be an ass for nothing why dont you just leave this forum. the car scene right now needs a lot less people like you and a lot more people like the kid. people have to stop shitting on eachother for no fucking reason. it's not a competition, and if you think it is, get the fuck out.

    wheels and lips are what you need, but you already know that! look forward to seeing more progress
    Ya im low enough already. I need wheels but don't have the funds yet and I need new tires now so that's gonna set me back a few hundred. Thanks

    Just finished installing the KW V3's today. I also did something to the car I think the majority of you guys have been waiting for
    I'll upload some new pics soon.

    Haha I might have to raise it a quarter inch or so because the underbody panels have smacked a few times going over speedbumps. Any possible damage I can cause by smacking the underbody? The oil pan is pretty tucked up and safe but I am worried about the plastic undertrays, I have already cracked one
    As long as the trans and motor is out the way, the only other concern would be gas tank. But the's not an issue on this. I know parts aren't cheap to replace. I'd kep it where its at IMO.

    I know they make the NT03M in 5x130 not sure about the rpf1's, anyone know?
    Rpf1's would look dope but I think I'd rather save my money and get some 3pc wheels.
