some questions
hope you guys can help me out

I believe that you all know that I am going with carlsson rear add on and custom dual exhaust with quad tips

my question, since I have the read add on lip already, should I get the exhaust done first, and then install the bumper, so there know how much to cut out for the exhaust.
or should I just install the add on lip and have the bodyshop cut out left side corresponding to the right side. and have the custom exhaust done after that.

I've call couple bodyshop, and they said they don't recommand cutting out the bumpers, I have no idea why is that??


any help??

mine: '01 C240 w/heavy modifications dad's: '05 997 Carrera S
i keep mine at 36/38 cold pressures, and i get even wear and a reasonably nice ride (on 18s).

Yeah...basically you are turning your car into a slightly different version of mine (you have good taste!). luckily im upgrading to the new Rieger E63bumper in the next week or two

always one step ahead hehe


looks damn good btw, just reminds me how much mine needs a damn detail/clay/polish/wax...waiting till i get the new bumper and [same] fenders all painted and in.
