Default My C4S Cab + upgrades

Since I purchased my c4s in April of last year as a birthday present to myself I've been absolutely in love with it! A 911 has always been my dream car and since the 991 came out its been my goal to own one as a third car so I can play with it. That I have. I think I'm done with mods for the time being and I felt that it was an appropriate time for me to share a few pics of her and the things that I've done so far.

My build isn't overly excessive, but its exactly what I was looking for minus the SD front spoiler, which I may not do now that the car is lowered.

White with Pebble Grey/Agate two tone interior
Burmester stereo
PSE
Sport Chrono
Smart top module
NAVTV backup cam
K40 and laser diffuser
Techart Springs
Vorsteiner Rear diffuser (Currently off as its being replaced)
HRE 7 and 15mm spacers
AWE Exhaust with Black diamond tips
BMC Filters
IPD Plenum
Fresh Cobb Tune

I did all the performance mods one by one so I could keep track of my seat of the pants dyno ROI.

I am extremely happy with the final results.
I got a great deal on the IPD and the COBB and I feel the ROI is definitely in the range

Beautiful C4s Maxr! Interior pics would be nice to see too. Are your front side lights still orange (can't tell from the reflection in the pics)? I highly recommend the clear LED ones from Suncoast or your dealer. I'm glad you are enjoying your mods. Nicely done.

What's going on with the rear bumper?

Cheap upgrade is the SPASM lip not available on cabs OEM but cheap and easy DIY.

Oh and I do have the clear side markers. I think that was the first thing that I did before even bringing the car home after meeting the delivery truck!

The rear valance is off because I had the Vorsteiner Rear diffuser on there. I just installed the exhaust and left the diffuser off because its being replaced. The new one is coming monday and I plan to take it to a shop to put it up on a lift and cut a hole for the oil drain.

As for the SPASM lip, I'm not a big fan of it. And besides it is probably my biggest pet peeve when people make a car look something its not.

Beautiful car Marx!
I'm curious, was there a problem with the Vorsteiner diffuser? I've got one being delivered this week and hoping I'm not in for trouble. Also, do you think the gains from your performance mods were worth the costs?
Thanks

all I have to say is be very gentle installing it. The tabs break really easily. I think they could be stronger. Once it's on it's fine. There were a coupe of tabs broken when I got it and then I broke a couple more. I was able to attach it and make it stay just fine. Love the way it looks but also keep in mind it reduced clearance quite a bit. My car is lowered so with the diffuser you've got to be extra careful.
Proor to installing it make sure you get it up in the air and cut in a hole for the oil drain. I think its stupid that they don't do it when it's manufactured!

As as for the mods, yes I'm very happy with them. I don't think the IPD did much but I can't really tell. I bought the IPD and Cobb tune used for about 50% of their retail cost so at that price it was justifyable. Not sure id spend 1000 on it if I had to do it again. If you want to know anything about one of the upgrades specifically let me know.
