Crazy Eddie's bolsters look just like the OEM seat bolsters. Unless someone points them out or you are looking for them you would never know they were there. They are easy to install. I have no creasing issues either. Just take you time and stretch the leather snug. As others have said, if the switch pops out just press it back in, no big deal. On Eddie's thread, I posted my install pics.

Haha,

Great line! The 2RS does make the 3RS feel gutless. It's a total rocket, just delightful hammer down.

If we are gonna use body parts, I'd say the 3rs does have less guts but more heart

Absolutely, I was disappointed with the .2 3RS. There is allot to love about the 2RS but the power, sound, and handling are biggies for me. I have repeatedly heard people say the sound of the 3RS is better but having owned both the 2RS, in my opinion, is way better. Road rocket is exactly how I have repeatedly described the 2RS, and in many cases it takes a few minutes for your brain to catch up.

Ignore the small t-shirt and tight pants, I think we will have another tire to choose from on the GT2RS very soon. Can't wait to find out which tires is the quickest on the GT2RS.
Really interesting tires, wish they had Trofeo R, Cup 2, & Cup R also

I was not disappointed with my .2 3RS. However, the torque power and the look of the 2RS makes it more fun IMO. I almost didn't buy one but I'm glad I did. My favorite 911 ever.

I luv my 2RS - it's primarily a track car. Incredible fun powering out of turns and getting to scary top speeds at my local fast track. Took some time for brain to learn how to track a high downforce/aero car.

But....it does understeer A LOT. Yes it's a safety feature - and ya likely has saved me from applying too much power at times and going for a spin.

But have any 2RS owners put rear sway bars to hard and can comment how it has changed its behaviour on track?

Does the GT2RS helmet case come free with the GT2RS car? Do I have to request it from my dealer or just wait?

Thanks,

Omar

Yes; I would at least inquire about the helmet with your dealership but I am sure you will get one. I took delivery of my 2RS in January so it took about 5 months for it to arrive. Porsche will mail it to your home address on file.
