Cool video...a few tips: - your intro is way too long, should be 1-2s max - if you talk about lights/turn signals, you should show how they look when they are on

Can you share the link for the lights and the test tool that allows you to code the lights? Love that idea!

Loving this!! Quality mods!! A lot of them I’m considering but I move a LOT slower. I would love to see it in the sunlight. I have a PTS Ferrari Yellow 997.1 and want to see how those Morimoto headlights and taillights look in sunlight. I think the headlights are too dark for my taste, I’ll probably stay OEM. It the tails and the fogs are pretty likely. I took off my color matched lip and put the black one on. I think with color match the front looks too tall if that makes sense. Plus I want to do the EMC2 side skirts and rear skirts in black, so that’ll all match. Considered the gas cap, it man that’s a lot of money for a plastic “aluminum look” cap. I’d rather pay more for an actual aluminum one. I also put the red “S” behind Carrera but I did not upgrade to the newer 991 emblem. On Rennlist there’s a PCCM+ thread and they’ve figured out the USB in the back and the back up camera. It’s very long tho, you’ve been warned. What struts are you running with the H&Rs? How much of a drop did you get? Also something I’m considering. I have the Bilstein B6s, want to retain PASM and add a DSC controller. How’s ride quality compared to stock? I do not want it to be rough. All in all it looks good and hope it hangs around for a while. Looking forward to the completed build!

Thank you very much for the kind words. Owwww, I’d love to see photos of your car as I’ve never seen a PTS Ferrari Yellow 997.1. I have friends that normally don’t like the Morimoto lights on my previously owned Black and Silver 997 but said it popped on Speed Yellow in a positive way. Personally, I like black housing headlights, especially because the car has darker accents throughout. Anytime I make modifications to a vehicle, I feel that everything needs to be balanced and flow well together. I considered replacing the lens on my OEM headlights and doing the all red taillights but just love the Morimoto lighting. If you do a color matched lip, everything else needs to be color matched for it to flow correctly. I have a set of OEM GT2 sills that are in the process of being color matched. Rear bumper is getting a complete makeover. These was some weird indentations and damage that started from the outside and pushed it outwards. The rear bumper has been repaired and it’s getting repainted with CVD rear bumperette delete, EMC2 rear side splitters and an AF1 rear diffuser. I do agree that the fuel cap was pricey but I really like it. I feel like it will be used since it’s driven often. Yeah I plan to do the back up camera for the PCCM+. This car has PDC sensors but I think the camera will help. I bought a generic universal one and one that replaces the license plate light but still has a smaller light built in. I’m currently running the OEM struts on the H&R springs. They lowered the car 1.2” F/R which is great. Front has no wheel gap and the rear has a 1 finger wheel gap but I plan to bring the wheels out a bit. Personally, I think the H&R springs on OEM struts ride better than the “cheap” coilovers that I had on my silver 997. I enjoy the modding process but need to slow down 😂😂 I plan on hanging onto this one for a while since I’ve been wanting this exact spec since my first ‘06 C2S Aero Car

All red tails would be nice, I’ve mentioned somewhere before I’d be on them like white on rice if Morimoto made them in all red. I’ll reserve judgement on the headlights in black until I can see yours out in the daylight at various angles. Color matching the side skirts and rear skirt is an option, but I like the black. I’m going to have to look up the the AF1 diffuser. Seeing your gas cap does make me want to spend the money, it does looks good. As far as the drop is concerned, I don’t want to go too far. 1 finger gap I think would be good. We’ll see.

I think Speed Yellow is a little more “warm” than Ferrari Yellow. I wanted a SY S with aero kit but when the Ferrari Yellow popped up with just about everything I wanted, whatever. It’s Yellow and if anything a little more unique. There is a guy not too far from me with a speed yellow C2S but we haven’t met up yet to compare SY and FY side by side. Here’s a clip I made real quick from last year: kzitem.info/news/bejne/xKhotZaGkWpiiYosi=LGA-8s-Up6YD4cFb

@@K1dPhresh1 I see exactly what you mean. Warmer is a good term, I was going to say SY is darker and the FY is brighter
