Hello..
i am a new member just joined this morning.. have been a long time Porsche enthusiast since I sat in my uncles 911 when I was 12 years old. I have built a dune buggy and a factory five Shelby replica so I do know my way around the garage. I bought my first Porsche 9 months ago and it puts a smile on face everyday.
I need to thank the ones who have posted on this forum as your information has been extremely helpful. I look forward to learning more from all of you.
When I figure out how to post some pics I will get my car up.

She is a 2003 Carrera 4, 6 speed with 34,500 miles. Super clean car. I have done several things IMS, RMS, new clutch, engine mounts, replaced filters, replaced misc trim, polished headlights as they weren't perfect. I really enjoy working on my car and take pride in it. I love this forum for the knowledge that the folks have and the amount everyone contributes. Looking forward to staying part of this group!

Hey - welcome and nice looking car, I really like those wheels!

Quick question - when you polished the headlights did you apply any type of clear coat afterwards? I've been thinking about polishing mine as well. Any before/after pics?

Cheers
Charlie

Before..
After.. you can see the difference in the around fog light.. night and day difference in real life. Pictures don't really do it justice.. I use the UV protectant that came with the kit..

My dune buggy.. 1967 Kellison.. in rough shape.. floors rotten.. motor barely ran.. needed a lot of work...
after it received tons of TLC..
Ran really nice on the beach!!
Here is a pic of my cobra.. had a 347 stroker motor in it.. 445hp/430torque. Car weighed 2300 with me in it. Was a lot of fun at the track. Ten second car if you could get the tires to hook.

Welcome. I am fairly new here also, compared to some on this forum.
Your user name got my attention. My license plate on my '99 C2 is NEUN11. Also, I drive by Factory Five everyday in Wareham, Ma.. I live about 5 miles from them. From your pics, it looks like you are also in the north east.
