That is OEM, they changed the spoilers with the 997.2 and those are the optional center locking wheel option.

Very nice. Just saw this the other day at the dealership and couldn't believe how good it looked in person. It's so low too.

Congragulations, DRDrilZ.....nice Porsche.

You're right that it's a great weekend toy. I see you're in GA.......far enough north in GA, I hope, that it's not too far a drive to the N GA mountains and some nice twisties.

Top Gear agrees with your choice of the GT3. They think it is the best of the bunch.
