Porsche Carrera GT with a custom bodykit!

New member


Found this carrera GT with a custom bumper and iForged wheels and I wanted to share it with you guys











Personally I think it's not ugly but I wouldn't prefer it. It looks like a frontbumper from a boxter.

+1 on the boxter comment, and I hate the wheels.

Off-topic, but I've always had mixed feelings about the Carrera GT. It's great to see Porsche step away from the "Beetle" look of all their Coupe's ie. Cayman and 911, but that rear end is hideous. Also, I'm not a fan of the interior.

I guess we've finally found a point to disagree on!

I personally really like it. I think it looks exotic and unique. A bit much maybe, but I think that's the point of a hypercar. I also think the exhaust tips are the best I've seen yet. They look amazing in real life.

Oh well, the streak had to come to an end at some point.

Eh, its ok. I think the OEM bumper looks better, and I think if he painted the stock wheels black and put on that yellow strip, then it would look alot better.

hey man its cool , relax. He PWNS me x 10 with that carrera GT, so I'm not complaining haha. . . or in a position to (Don't have an LP640 or an F430 scuderia in the garage I could argue against that GT with )

I just meant that those Mirage GT's own most all carrera GT's in general. But there are several Mirage GT's with actual owners. Cost about 800-900k though

ufff +1

The bodywork is perfect and gives such a mean stance. I think the grey paint looks really aggresive and compliments the "mean" look.
