I like the black on black! 👍👍👍

Thank you for sharing the pictures! I like that a lot. I'm definitely going with black Porsche, maybe I'll add back 911 Turbo in black as well. Now I need to decide between gloss black or paying for jet black metallic to match. Luckily I made a template out of painters tape before debadging so I can get them on in the original location without getting the dealer to use their template. If I went with Porsche only I'd move it down a bit, as I think that's what Porsche did from the factory with the model delete option.

I don't love the chrome on black since there is nothing else on the car in chrome other than the headlight washers. I might just order everything in jet black metallic from Bumperplugs. I'm considering painted reflectors, but it bothers me if I were to park in the street, although that probably happens only a couple of times per year. I was going to tape over them and experiment at night to see how reflective the taillights are.

I agree regarding location of a lower PORSCHE alone..better balance... and also with the comment regarding chrome...no other chrome to compliment it..black was an $800 dealer option which is the cost I expended to have my detailer complete it..with new authentic lettering..if I did it again I'd give more consideration to "911 turbo S" or "turbo S " ..cheers

Cleaned holes of the perforated leather seats with a toothpick, toothbrush, Griots interior cleaner, rubber dental pick, leather cleaner and a clean wet and dry cloth...........then.....

Got on the internet and found a terry cloth seat cover for the drivers side - Seat Armour - so I don't have such a tedious job...........seats look new again........amazing how those little holes can get dirty or hold leather dressing (if you use too much)

Took the wife for a pretty long ride today to get out of the house for a while!! She much prefers the 17 way seats in the turbo over the LWB's in the spyder...
