New mods for me!

Here's a few pics of my 997 showing some of the mods I've done.

Mods:
HRE P40s (gloss charcoal)
Eibach lowering springs
Tubi mufflers
Fabspeed sport cat x-pipe
custom tips
alcantara dash, shifter, storage bin, e-brake arm
short shifter
GT3RS steering wheel
SRP pedals











Still to come is a carbon fiber front lip and more alcantara.

Wow, looks great with the P40's! How do the eibach's ride? What struts are you using?

Eibach springs were much lower on my Mercedes, too low in fact.

Thanks, DJ.

Brabus in Newport Beach wrapped it, and I had my local shop install it.

The springs ride great. Slightly firmer over bumps, but not jarring at all. Less body roll and I think it looks much better too. One of the main reasons I went with Eibach springs instead of other brands is that it only lowered the car about 3/4"; more than that it will scrape on everything.

Nice ride, the gt3 rs steering wheel fits the rest of the car perfectly. Perfect blend between leather/alcantara. Way to not go overboard on the interior with CF and painted bits as ive seen alot of people do. It's going to look sick with the cf lip!

Awesome selection of mods you have done there. You cannot go wrong with Tubi mufflers, nothing even competes with Tubi!

Love it! Very tastefully done!! Can't go wrong with the p40s and the touches you have done and are planning to do are just right IMO. Enjoy it in the best of health!
