It sucks we can't use the new rims for this car, it would be perfect with "Ruff Weld Ultra Deep", instead of the regular ones.

You can; you just need to drive to a regular LSC to get them.

 

Agreed BTW. Ruff Weld Mega Deep, Cosmo Mk III, and Deep Flake all fit this car very well.

Why can't we use the new wheels again? I'm fairly certain you can.

Lot of people in older Porsche's run on BBS from my experience seeing them at car shows, think it's just the spoke style. Can be pulled off well. I want to say you're going for a "bare but wish wasn't so wide" factory look(or close)? was my first thought or would've suggested sportier styles.. lol

This is the look I'm trying to achieve but the wheels are honestly giving me a really rough time. Also yeah, I wish the car came without the wide body, would have been much cleaner

Ah, I see.

 

Unaware if we even have anything remotely close to those. And yeah, have this on NFS bone stock, just BBS rims and max perf.. Sleeper.. lol

High End - Supa Gee come pretty close but honestly there's no point in making this car into anything but a tuner or race car.

Too big, I used them for a GT3 Touring style build on the Comet SR. Wouldn't look good on an older platform.

Then you have to play on PC with mods. It's really your only other option.

New wheels!

Add new liveries to other cars, but not to this. Add RWB wings, but to the new Comet where they don’t fit. ROCKSTAAAAAAAAR

The only thing they need to do is the euros threatment and make this thing stock with a better interior.

And with a ton more mods to make classic 911s with, especially spoilers and roof options (like the RT3000, give it topless, targa, soft and hard roof options).

I think they can keep this interior, just redesign the dashboard to remove the infotainment system, and move the steering wheel up to de-obstruct the gauges.

 

This interior already feels a lot like the classic 911 interior, complete with gauges for the oil pressure and oil temperatures, instead of coolant temperature, alluding to the fact that this car is air cooled as it should be.

I was going to sell it, as I'm making a garage clearance and I despise RWB (love Porsches, but these are abominations...), but then got an idea. I present to you: a Yellowbirb.

I’ve got a new Comet Retro Custom, custom-made for me. I created an orange RGB and had it made on brushed metal texture, trying to replicate as best possible the look of this RAUH-Welt Begriff custom 930. RWB is a Japan-based Porsche tuner, and it’s pretty clear that their designs were a significant inspiration for the Comet Retro Custom. As usual, screenshots don’t do the look of this car justice; live in game, it looks more like the real deal.
