    UK-registered RHD 996 GT3 RS flying round the 'Ring.

    Whilst I appreciate the 996 GT3 RS very much, the shape of the body is not as curvaceous or sensuous as the 997's (or for that matter, any 911 series). But what I really struggle with from an aesthetic POV are the massive side-skirts which appear disproportionately heavy in relation to the body. Just me?

    If I read it correctly, and I think I did, his favorite was the same one that the Fedex guy and the UPS guy liked!

    There may be another inspired RS purchase about to happen...

    My friend is getting a 3.8 GT3 RS, and I'm sure there will be prolific postings soon.

    There is a reason why the factory leaves those areas in black plastic. Road-rash will quickly destroy the paintwork (which will not adhere to the plastic very well anyway), and soon there will be a peeling & pitted surface, making the exercise pretty pointless. Also, from an aesthetic perspective, the car now looks 'fatter' with much more surface area covered by body-color paint, giving the illusion that it is taller etc. Now if the car were a dark color like grey-black, then this might work, but on a stark white car? Not-so-much. I do see these mods and the only thing that pops into my mind is: why?

    On the other hand, the graphics mod is cool.
