Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hello - kind regards.
I found this car while browsing today and since I'm new to 996s, I was wondering what isn't stock on this car. Obviously the wheels and tints - but the front aero looks non-OEM.

Am I correct?
That is a standard 4S...shares same front bumper as a Turbo.
Car is wrapped, wheels are aftermarket BBS, OEM radio replaced with double din screen, aftermarket rubber floormats
the front lip is aftermarket, I have the same one on my car
not uncommon, it's a wear item
stereo is aftermarket as are the wheels which you pointed out
the real question is the color which is listed as Arctic Silver
I'm certain that car has been wrapped, as indicated in the door jambs
the rest looks pretty straightforward

I�d be sure to check the rotors and pads. That can be an expensive maintenance project and best to address it in the purchase price. From the pic the passenger rear rotors looks pretty groovy - but it could just be the lighting.
It's nice - I like the wrap and the rims, but that boils down to personal preference. If you don't like the wrap or rims, they are easy enough to undo.
The price seems a bit high to me, given the mileage, but it is a dealer, not a private sale, so that makes sense to me.
I looked at the same basic car: 2003 in seal grey, private sale, 10K more miles, for sale in my region for low 20's, original owner, all documents, keys and service history, totally stock. The mileage was what turned me away. If I didn't already have a high mileage 996 in the garage, that one would have been in the garage instead.
