After too much buftying it was time to have some fun...so the 993 is now adorned with a Techart spoiler (and for the purists it can go back to stock in about 2 hours!)

Also some meaty RSR exhausts fitted and now I am deciding if I want to go down the basalt black wheel route....forgive rubbish photo shop...but it gives me an idea.

That loooks good. I like the wheels, might be worth trying a mid-grey with silver rims?
Has the exhaust made any performance difference?

Really like the spoiler. Black wheels don't do much for it for me though. But it's your car! :)

I know, if you look just under right headlight there is some dust.

Looks nice Clive, but then I am slightly biased about meaty spoilers looking good on 993s!

Had a look in the flesh this afternoon, the spoiler suits the car nicely and the paint job is exceptionally good.

The exhaust sounds a lot beefier as well and has retained that Porsche sound that gets lost with some of the aftermarket sytems.

Just need to sort those wheels now pal :wink:

Clive,

What have you done??? Your car was beautiful just the way it was. You're obssessed with cleaning, you're obssessed with cleaning (repeat 500 times). Keep on cleaning... :lol:

Before anyone says owt, I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I've never been a fan of big tea trays on the back of cars. I know what it is... is it a big tray to put all your cleaning products on when you're cleaning the car? :wink:

Ben :bounce:

p.s. See you next year in the concours buddy.
