Took her out for her Sunday morning thrashing then spent some time gawking at the epic beauty that is her stock ride height/wheel gap...

Yeah, I couldn't take it anymore.. Spent last weekend throwing a set of Eibachs on. That .5" makes a huge difference

Nice, how does it feel vs stock?

Honestly, don't notice any real difference in ride quality. Camber is way off so that was kinda exciting, getting that fixed this week.

Don't forget the opulent beauty of those side markers...

Yes, they really were a fantastic looking car, I cannot remember how much the one I saw was worth, but the lines and the grumble have been seriously embedded in my memory.

No problem, I'd do a solid like that for anyone.

Does this happen with all lowering springs?

Any pics of the drop?

Installed Blendmount radar detector holder and did a hard wire tap.
So much cleaner looking than the suction cup holder and wire coming out of the glove box.
Plus now the radar detector turns on/off with the ignition. I was always forgetting to turn it off before

I have the blendmount and tap in my garage yet go be installed. Which wires did you end up tapping into?

Looking good there!

So, after giving the 991 some much needed love, I have made two discoveries ...

One, the third brake light seems to be missing a chunk of lens, and two, I appear to have bent a rim.

In both cases, I am not sure when this occurred - the lens, or body, does not show any impact around it, and I am pretty sure I would have noticed driving over something hard enough to bend the rim.

First world problems for sure, but irritating nonetheless....
