OK, all you snow-scared sissies, look away-

Nokians on Forged Dishes.

Factory Ski rack with individual ski holders (2 factory, 2 modded vintage thules)

Factory mudflaps (these keep *a ton* of crud off the car)

Cut to shape rubber mats

Heated sport seats

repaired interval wipers

Bring it on!

I never knew there were factory mudflaps. I have been thinking of making a small pair to protect my newly-painted front of rear wheelarch area.

Got any better pictures of them?

They are from the 965 3.6.
You need to remove the sills to fit them correctly. the good part is that they attach to the sills, so no drilling into the body.

I got these fitted to my car just before it went off to be painted and it makes a huge difference to the sills and sharks fins in terms of protection, both from dirt and more importantly stone chips!!

Part numbers if you're interested are:

965.559.615.00
965.559.616.00

£41.54 + VAT each from an OPC

Yes, they found a new calling. These were an option on the early 964s, but in 6&8. I have 7&8s here.
Forged rims make most sense in harsh conditions. They resist corrosion superbly, are easy to clean, and very light to boot.

George, you are my hero! I have always wanted to drive a C4 in snow, headed for the slopes, with skis on top. I don't have a C4, though (C2 targa), and I live in Florida...George = Hero!

Hi Viggo,
The washers had been painted over by a crap bodyshop. I removed the paint from the central adjustable part ony, to be able to adjust them correctly.
