Some guys use a hair drier to soften adhesive on badge, some use fishline to lift badge...mine came off when I was hand buffing my 99, and the towel caught the corner of the Carrera badge and broke it, so I removed it for now.

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.

I just picked up a 1999 Porsche 911 6 speed with a gt3 aero kit up from Texas a few days ago and drove it all the way back to Wisconsin. I must say, the car is amazing!!!! The handling, the braking, the entire feel of the car is unlike anything else I've ever driven!!! Its my first porsche and I'm loving the experience already. Its quite a different driving experience from my Toyota Supra Turbo that I own and is pretty much better in every category except the straight line where HP is a key factor.
As for modifications, this has quite a few. BBS 2 piece wheels with Pilot sport ps2 tires, 225 up front, 315's out back, H&R springs, Euro tails, side markers, and headlights, fabspeed headers running to Fabspeed muffler bypass pipes with 4.5" tips, fabspeed intake, ecu chip, gt3 console delete, silver faced gauges.
I'm looking to supercharge this car over the winter. I'm trying to find information on what parts I will need to do this and where I can buy them. If anybody knows any information on this, please let me know!
Let me know what you guys think!
Beautiful !! - though I am partial to black!!
Love the full Aero kit with rear wings too... 315's out back? you sure on that....? +1 for ditch the GT3 badge and lets get the headlights an amberectomy
Welcome to the show, enjoy !
There are a couple supercharged rides here... they will pop in and say hi, also you might want to check out 6speedonline as those guys tend to do more of that type of mods ?
looks amazingly clean, how many miles?

+1 on losing the badge. It's tacky to have a badge on there saying it's a GT3 when it's clearly not.
I used dental floss and rubbing alcohol to take my Carrera badge off.
Nice looking ride. Congrats.
GT3 she is not, so the badge is a little poser. But if it floats your boat, leave it. You'll need to paint the calipers red and also lose the sunroof and rear seats to pull it off.

To be quite honest, I didn't realize it while I owned the car, but I liked the Brown '79 best of all. VERY simple car, but fun as crap to drive
I even admit that I liked the 15" Fuchs - very comfy ride too on the 'balloon' tires...
Nice, I think it could use some wheel spacers. 15MM in the back and 7MM in the front will do nicely. This will fill out the wheel wells. It's a fairly inexpensive mod with dramatic results. Especially since it appears to be lowered
the 993 crowd was having all kinds of problems with their PSS9 setups - popping the sway bar end links, lock ring issues, you name it. Does the PS10 rig have the same issues for 996's or????
