    Very nice, and just about the same spec that I've ordered. Like the red belts too, and the coloured crests (neither of which I've got)

    Re: My 997 c2s

    Nice, I sorta like the red belts, they are really interesting. I also like the subtle change of the colored porsche badges on the wheel centers... thats really cool. I noticed you have winter tires on, did they come on like that or did you buy them extra???

    Anyway good luck, and have fun with it. Looks really clean too. Oh and your steering wheel is on the wrong side

    man that looks so weird... but i guess a steering wheel on the left side like us looks weird to you

    No most early models came with michelans. Took the other manufacturers time to develop there own versions I think.

    Amazingly, when I ordered my 997S, the single option that bothered me the most was the darn colored wheel crest. I couldn't decide if it would look good on a blk/blk. Now that I have it, I'm really glad that I got it because it adds (positively) to the overall look of the car. In addition to the yellow brake calipers.
