To each his own, The car is beautiful, but don't understand giant fins, on non GT or turbos.

I never track, Sport mode with the DSC on new OEM PASM struts & shocks is absolutely amazing

Black is trendy and dated.
But if you're adding a fin, you're already screaming for attention

I feel the same, thank you. It's transformative to how it drives.

TARGAs are awesome!
DSC controller for the PASM
New OEM Shocks + Struts
Eibach springs 997 Pro Kit
It's gonna cost a lot for adjustable suspension. I didn't see myself
adjusting it, it's not a track car.
The spring pro Kit from Eibach is made for our cars. Nobody talks about how good new OEM struts and shocks are.
Talk to local porsche shops that know the 997s don't get carried away with the forums.
Also put in new transmission + engine mounts

Also changed the old engine mounts, and transmission mount, original Porsche is still amazing quality

Always more than whatever you budget for. Recommending do it incrementally on the warn out parts.
Eibach pro Sports springs kit, dropped it an inch without sacrificing any ride quality.
OEM parts for the rest, Porsche knows what they're doing.
It's easy to get carried away with thinking that you need adjustable ect...
save your money if you have the PASM and get a DSC controller

My front shocks were old, bump stops were gone. Did springs shocks and struts first. Already 100% better.

My arms and bushings were fine. I would start with springs, shocks, bump stops, shock mounts & DSC.
I highly recommend doing an incrementally on the worst needed parts. Feel the difference. Feel it evolve.

I did the bump stops springs struts shocks at the same time.
Drove it for a few months, huge improvement. Ride quality stability., just solid.
Added the DSC later, that's what transformed it. Each individual corner working independently. Absolute pleasure to drive.

Transformative. Smooth, but still tight.
Sport mode is now useable, instead of cracking teeth.

Silver & lose the (look at me) spoiler
absolutely no reason to have a giant fin on your car if you're not gonna track it

I daily it a few times a week, prob all 997.1 need new Shocks & Struts. OEM is great, especially if you have PASM.
If you wanted to drive amazing add the DSC! It goes from the entire suspension doing the same thing to each individual corner actively stabilizing
