‘15 Targa 4S at 75K miles. Not a rattle, squeak or leak.

Not really interested in any performance upgrades, but what about general changes that would further improve reliability.
I only have two that I am considering; third radiator & stainless brake lines.

A few here have done preemptive replacements like water pumps, but I’m old school in the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” category.

After a couple of coast to coast road trips, front showing a few dings. Paint or wrap?

Any additional thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know that for ordinary use that a third radiator or stainless brake lines are going to improve reliability. That's not to say that they're not worthwhile upgrades if the cost is no issue.

Also agree on not replacing something that "ain't broke" unless there are clear signs that it's going to break soon.

You could paint then wrap, but if the kicks aren't bothering you too much and you expect to pick up more along the way, maybe put it off a little longer.

Sounds like you're covered with the Platinum warranty so drive and enjoy.

I bought the third radiator with the following idea. I always run in sports plus and with the third radiator the engine runs cooler (20%??). I am a long tèrm owner and normally rubber and head gaskets deteŕiorate in 12 to 15 years. By limiting heat from the motor my goal is to extend the life. I do live in FL so I guess this strategy might not work on the north pole.

Sport + without the third radiator already run cooler. Just by pushing a button.
