Yeah the temperature's are very consistent, the needle used to fluctuate with the old bumper but during the switch I cleaned the gunk out from inbetween the radiaters and now the needle only moves during warmup

Suggestion
Pay close attention to you coolant temperatures as some aftermarket bumpers have been known to change the airflow through the radiators.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Very nice! White is so much nicer than silver IMHO...

Thank you! They match the white perfect

Rotella T6 5w-40 😉
Thank you! The green fits white perfectly
Yes I've been keeping an eye out for that. Since cleaning the radiators and fitting this bumper the temperature has been where it's suppose to be. Ive already done over 2k miles on it with no issues!

Nice work OP. We're all dying to know the process you went through to get the car looking like this. Was it originally arctic silver? The front headlights look customized of course. Where did you get that done? And, how did you go about rewiring the front blinkers? Anything you could share if very helpful to the RL community. Thanks!
Very clean and tastefully done, Livadi! I checked out your website, this 996 is an excellent rolling billboard for your work. Good stuff. Welcome to the madness!
Appreciate it fellas!
Im a DIYer at heart so all the work on it has been done by me. To sum it all up I originally bought it as an arctic silver but have since wrapped it in gloss white. The headlights have been de-ambered and I did a projector retrofit as well. The front blinkers are wired into the OEM headlight harness. I can come up with guides down the road for these mods if anyone is interested.
Thank you for taking the time to view the site!
The 996 is my pride and joy, plan on seeing a new color scheme on it every summer
Honestly, everyone Ive spoken to about the car doesn't believe its a 99. The only ones who were able to tell I had a 997 bumper were guys who have owned or already own some sort of Porsche and even then most of them say it looks pretty good.
