A Few Updates for Kermit & decals: Champion 171 Wheels
Hey fellas just wanted share a few recent updates on Kermit (don't worry... no 4.6L stroker
).
Visually we opted for a set of Champion Motorsport's super-light 19 inch 171 Monolite wheels:
Now if you look closely at the exterior... you'll see that the decals are not exactly visible. We actually wanted to go for a "ghosted" green and do away with the traditional black and go for a less is more... So we turned to forum sponsor, Premier:
Next up we decided we were going to be using our 996GT3 seats in our 996 GT3 project so we opted for the 2010 Carbon Bucket seats. They're a somewhat heavier than what we had before (they have the thorax airbags etc...) but overall they're certainly more of a "comfort" seat. Since we're putting a lot of miles on her that's not necessarily a bad thing. I still think the 6GT3 seats are more supportive and better for the track....
In with the CF sport buckets:
Here's what she looks like in 3D if you will:
YouTube - SharkWerks Porsche 997 GT3RS ZKERMIT with 3.9L Motor and Track Exhaust
Anyways, enough babbling... anyone fancy a drive?

I really like those rims! The only ones I would like better would be GT3 RSR BBS. This is a special car you guys have, I would definitely send my car to get the SW treatment if I had one.
Edit: That sounds amazing, too. Is that the SW exhaust, or the race one?
