I was looking to install different tips, like yours, when I change the exhaust to fister.

Using it as my daily driver and loving it so far especially now that I have had the crazy Japanese Nav and radar detector removed (very yelly at me in Japanese). I am well aware of the IMS, RMS, AOS, etc. equaling a POS but remember I paid for it with my money and was happy to do so. I have always loved how the 996.1 GT3 looked and when I realized I could afford to buy a look a like, I had to have it. Not planning on doing anything to the car except drive it with a smile on my face (regular oil changes and any required maintenance as well of course).
If it turns out to be a POS, so be it. Anything that looks that good it is going to be hard to stay mad at.
Are those springs on the headers a cutout? If so, you need to post the sound differential! Never seen that before.

ETA: Beautiful car! Drive the **** outta her!
Very nice and congrats. What exhaust tips are those? They look bigger than stock 100mm.
I have a similar car and love it. 2001 C2 Aero Manual in polar silver.
Nice! I love the look of the aero kit. My car is Arctic Silver which from what I have read was a common colour. The exhaust tips came with the car so I am not sure what brand they are but they are aftermarket. The tips are 135 mm at the widest point.
No rush at all, but mind looking to see if there are any markings on them? I was looking to install different tips, like yours, when I change the exhaust to fister. Porsche ones are stupid expensive. Thank you.
Crap, just after you got my hopes up! haha. Oh well. I will leave that till next year. I already spent a lot on the car this year with the new wheels, tires, and suspension. Thank you for the help.

It is my favorite wing as well. It is a piece of functional art Porsche put on the car and in my opinion it just makes the car. Because it is art it evokes an emotional response, people will love it or hate it. I love it and is one of the main reasons I had to buy a 996.1 aero.
