Hello all, thought I'd start my Cayman updates and tweeks on here. 

So she's a 2007 with 111000 on the clock.. 

A touch tatty but all together a fantastic car for the money.

I had no plans to buy one untill I suggested to a mate in the market for a new car "how about the Cayman, supposed to be fantastic" I briefly checked the prices online... Couldn't believe how cheap they were!! A week later... 20211224_001237.jpg.36597ce3e9a17aa4672c365cf9e87f0b.jpg

 Already 35mm lowered and looking beautiful 😍

So I've noticed the Cayman arches are huuuge! Whilst up on the ramps for a bit of a check over (new plugs, coils packs & compression check) I thought I'd throw a 20" tyre in there...

After a bit of photoshoppery I've decided I'd have to try the Porsche 20" techno wheels.

Ok so next a nice stainless steel exhaust...

Really shiny and filthy cheap... Surely it can't actually fit....

....Nope... Had to chop the flanges & brackets and reweld them for a propper fit.

And all on...

I'm not happy with the tip fitment but I'll address that later... Maybe something a little bigger and more in keeping with the car.

Looks great. Nice job on re-working the exhaust, but a shame you had to do that. What brand is it? 

 

Looking forward to seeing some 20"s on there if you fit them.

Ahh thanks, the brand is Toyo.

Tje 20s are on... It's the above photo. No rubbing or harsh ride. They actually ride better than the 18's 👍

1st photo is the wheels Photoshopped on and the second is the actual wheels on the car. To be honest it's not often that the real life actually looks better than the edited version.. IMO 😊20211224_165147.jpg.f228e78891ab51b7bd80b737958be948.jpg
