Way to go Josh. Can't wait to see Moar pics! Engine bay with that fan???
I'll ask questions later, but the exhaust brackets. Wow - that shot is amazing when you look at the reflection. Were those by hand or with the media blaster?
nice work... why brembo stickers?? i know they are made by brembo but still
Lol, I don't know... Personal preference I suppose.

Fister 3 with fabspeed sportcats sound incredible imo. I'm curious to know what you think.
I was afraid the combo would be too loud, but they sound just right to me. You really can keep the volume down if you need to. I'm really pleased!

Thanks! They are decals, rather than stenciled paint. I used a media blaster with glass beads, and the paint is from G2. They do custom mix colors too (L39E in this case).

Half of my ideas are stolen from you. So thanks!

Thanks! I did it all myself, minus the plating. Although I'll farm out the alignment too...

Thanks Jamie. I'll post an engine bay pic below. The polishing was done with a pneumatic die grinder.
Hopefully I'll be able to get the alignment scheduled this week. Then we need to go for a drive!

GT3 buckets on Brey-Krause brackets and 996 sliders... I got black Lloyd's to try and coordinate the two-tone interior. I'll probably switch to a black wheel and shifter later.
Another idea I stole from rennlist that's worth repeating... My AC compressor belt was TIGHT, too tight. I ordered a 1100cm belt, which allowed the adjustment bracket to actually be used. the 1085cm belt didn't allow the compressor to move even a millimeter off the stop. Also, I added a spacer to the adjustment bolt, so it's easier to access under the compressor.
