And thanks for reminding me to add clear side marker and side bolsters

check 7:30. He says calipers are inside slightly different and the pads are also different. Mistake?

I was hoping/expecting PAG Eng had sorted the wind buffeting issue at the factory?

I think the caliper pistons are slightly different and they changed the stock pad compound a little, but pad size and shape should be same (same aftermarket pads for each and same rotors)...

With Cats or w/o and reason why you are upgrading the headers?

I'm planning on:

1. Clear bra the whole car- too lazy to wash, so I like the flexibility of taking it to the dealer for car washes without worry.
2. Cantrell roll/harness cage
3. Harnesses
4. IPE titanium catback exaust/BBI bypass /Dundon race headers- can't decide
5. Brake fluid swap to endless
6. Track alignment
7. 911R shift ****
8. Paint interior door handles in black or swap to RS
9. LED side markers, dealer gave them to me last time
10. AWE wind foilers
11. LWB seat protectors- still have my exclusive ones I will move over from the GT4
12. Rennline tow hook
13. Paint silver speaker trim to black if possible
14. Burmester tweeter upgrade
15. Alcantara sunvisors
16. Seat angle adjusters

clear turn indicators - depends on the color of the car but usually an improvement ( lava orange may be the only exception)
Alcantara sun visors without the stickers - much better with the alcantara roof liner and the stickers are just horrendous, trying to remove them also never seems to work on the alcantara.
I haven't tried the seat angle adjusters on the buckets yet but seem to be an improvement for most so I'm doing it.
I've seen some problems with db limits with the stock exhaust so just keeping it simple
Anybody found an easy way to remove the sirius roof wart yet?

And for the decals on visors, I just cut some 1080 Dead Matte Black vinyl and cover them.
