Just hauntingly beautiful. I had to put them up.

Russ - This Cayman is the best to date IMO. Are those 19”s or 20”s and lowered?
Bob
Bob,
I believe they have to be 20's, here is what they said,
'One-piece, lightweight TechArt Formula wheels are available in 17, 18, 19 or 20-inch diameters, the biggest featuring 8.5Jx20 wheels with ContiSportContact 2 tyres in size 235/30 ZR 20 (front) and 11Jx20 wheels with 305/25 ZR 20 tyres (rear). Ride height is lowered by some 25-30mm using TechArt sport springs, with a sport suspension with firmer ride in testing.'
Russ
Looks amazing! 11Jx20 wheels are the way to go! This will probably improve grip as well!
I have to admit the more I look at those the more I like em! The car just looks so powerful.
Russ
I like how they blacked-out parts (rear 'diffuser,' mirrors, etc.)
The side skirts are bad. They disturb the lines of the car, namely the 'hockey stick and vent'
The spoiler is just ugly and 'add-on.' Why does it appear to have three spoilers? And u lose the function to the auto adjustable spoiler!

Good taste Crazy Fast. I hope you become an auto designer.
Thanks you, that means a lot. I'm aiming for Art Center College of Design (where all the famous designers came from, like Chip Foose) Seeing how its a very (VERY) competitive to get into that college, my alternative is College of Creative Studies (the designer for the hot-selling Chrysler 300C's, magnums etc. just graduted from the school. Interestingly, Chrysler hired him soon after his gradation!)
Crazy,
You do make some good points. I have to wonder about the rear spoilers,I guess having the upper one eliminates the need for theadjustable one.I like that'hockey stick', and you are right itis getting lost in the added skirts. But in spite of all that it still looks beautiful.
Russ
I think its the lowered body, blacked-out fogs & 20' rims which make it beautiful. Afterall, the stock cayman comes with large wheel wells and small rims which dont do a good job filling them up. But Russ, everyone has their own tastes, and I respect that. The front lip is quite inpressive (for a front lip) and overall, the car has a more aggressive appearence. And I think this car was posted earlier in another thread, revealing its interior, the best part of this car. Try to check it out!
Crazy,
I appreciate your thoughts. You have a gift for seeing things that others don't. Believe me I wish I had a fraction of your talent!
Thanks Russ
I like the blacked out fogs. I've got an Artic on order (Dec). Do you reckon I can get the fogs painted like that? After market? Any ideas where in the UK?
I think that the black fogs kind of work with the black wheels, not so sure it would look good with silver Alloy. Might have to do a Photoshop mock up. That Mod even has black tailpipes.
