Yes, I believe Showtime is producing the small screen adaptation of the books. Lin Manuel Miranda has signed on to co-produce and do the music.

I'm convinced Sanderson is not actually human, but is actually a self-aware AI that writes 50 pages per day. The guy is PROLIFIC!!

The glove box insignia that is in the picture is square with a metal back plate. It does not look like the rear deck lid piece. I cant seem to find it. Thanks for the help!

I made the back plate and printed my VIN and production date on it, then glued the 911T insignia on top of that. Now it looks somewhat like the plaque on the 911R

I love it! How did you make the backplate? Did you have a metal shop fabricate it and add the VIN and production date?

@ Alex_C
Reasearching PPF, going to do it once I recieve my T, seems modt people have had to remove their side decal when doing a full frontal wrap. From your posts, it seems you did a full frontal wrap, yet retained the decal. Did they wrap over the decal, or did you re-apply over top the PPF? Thanks!

Congrats on your T!

The installer just applied it over the decal. The sticker affected is such a small piece ahead of the door, that it is nearly impossible to notice the difference with the PPF applied.

I have no regrets whatsoever in having it done this way. And I am very "special" when it comes to my car, so I wouldn't tolerate a half @ssed installation.

BA73, my installer also did the PPF over the decal. You can check it out one day if we meet up.

Saw your video on the oil change on YouTube and immediately recognized the rear badge.

Thanks for the info, it was helpful for someone waiting on their car.
