Nice work, good info! I'm a little biased on the red/stainless look myself!

Very nice

Even looks great with the glass trim left black since the Fuch Paddles have been polished out.

Zorro1car, Thank you for the offer, I will contact you once I start on the project.

Do you attend the monthly Triangle PCA meeting's?

John, thanks for the quick response and the information....I will plan to attend.
Vincenttt, my Porsche was repainted from Bronze to red. The interior is brown with red leather inserts in the seats.....I had to get use to all of the 'red', but I like it. Here are some pictures:

There has been about 15-20 atendee's and lately we've been working on organizing a few trips during the year and have a tour at DC automotive coming up in February with a cook-out.

It is being held on the Second Tuesday of the month at Blinco's off Glenwood Ave 6:30 to 8:30. (March date might change due to the March Madness schedule)

Back in the fall there was weekend "Fall Tour" trip out to Asheville that went very well. The group made back to Raleigh in 3 hours

We usually eat, have a drink or too, chat Porsche stuff, ugrades, etc...

Also had a nice Holiday party hosted by one of the members, it was realy nice seeing 20 Porsches lined up the driveway and around the house.

Wow, a lot of Targa owners in the Raleigh area

I decided to see if someone on Pelican could run a photo shop of changing the Targa bar.

John, I must agree that the black targa bar looks better...probably in a semi or satin gloss. I 'photoshop' tool is very helpful.....I hadn't thought of using it.

I found this Targa on ebay which is the same color as mine.

I actually like the stainless bar look but I do not like the dark window tint.

Iceman,
You need to get yours polished out to match the rest of your chrome trim.
