Congrats Alex and nice upgrades! It looks like it has a few options inside like Alcantara.

Getting the car lowered will definitely make it look and handle better.

Enjoy in good health.

Nice ride! Congrats. Looks like you own / owned a 997.1 TT. Crazy good car as well but nothing beats these little Boxsters for pure driving joy.

Have fun with your mods and keep us posted.

Nice car. Congrats. This pic leads me to the question... what do you guys use to clean the touch screen? Is there a product made specifically for this?

Damp--not wet--microfibre cloth. Dry with clean microfibre cloth. If it's really greasy you can add a splash of white vinegar or alcohol to the water.

+1 on the damp microfiber, been using for the last seven years without a scratch.
