Porker Carbon Mirror Covers
Just had the windows tinted by Pentagon on the Porsche - light smoke on both side windows and smoke on the rear - perfect balance and should keep PC Plod happy - also had a set of carbon mirror covers fitted by Oakley Design - super high quality CF and perfect fitment - went for the half covers as i thought it was a nice contrast with the silver. GT3 front and rear bumpers are being fitted next week plus a handmade centre exit exhaust!!

That's a stunning looking car. I'm not a huge fan of the mirror covers personally but it's a fabulous car nonetheless.

How f**king pumped up does that look, the 2nd pic looks ace. Car looks like its been working out. Like its got massive shoulders.
Keep up the good work mate.

Your 997 does look the business. I'm not into modifying cars personally but when it's done nice & subtly I'm a huge fan. I've been looking at similar reg. 997's recently, they are coming into striking distance, just need to off-load the E90 onto the missus now.

Loving the wheels and know the GT3 bits will look gorgeous!
Not sure about the CF mirror covers would have to see it in the flesh to decide So damn jealous I need another Porsche in my life looks like I'll have to settle for an 8 series though! Beautiful car but red ones go faster Have lots and lots and lots of Fun!

Mike - have to say ive really gone off the idea - i cant help thinking Carlos is right about the Targa look and thats not really going to have the desired effect - so giving that mod a miss Mike. GT3 front bumper with carbon air induct, GT3 rear bumper and handmade center exit exhaust goes on next week sometime - pics to follow.
