In the process of pimping my garage. But I did take down the brooms today lol. Got home after work and spent about a 1.5 detailing her. Ran out of light before I could take pics. I will take proper pics tomorrow after I put on my clear reflectors. Rhodium is absolutely amazing. My paint is also flawless. Car is way better than I even dreamed

More pics. Rhodium is amazing in person. The 7mt is also so awesome. Also some pics from changes in MY2014 (cargo net, alcantara steering wheel, aluminum gas cap and fake key now has silver/chrome accents)
I can't figure out how to post the pics from my link.

Beautiful! And great pics!
Did you change the sidelights yourself or did the dealer do it. Is replacing them as easy as shown in the video? Also, what kind of tint did you get? Looks great!

Yes it's super easy. Just like the video. I had the dealer do the tint. Not sure what kind, but its 20% all around.

Thanks, Stealthboy and Labreeze! I have had my clear sidelinghts for a couple a couple of days now but did not venture to change them as I was not sure if they were that easy to change. Will change them tomorrow.

Hi Lebreeze, gorgeous car man, congrats. Interesting to see you also have an M3. I love the M3 but never owned nor driven one. Could you give a comparison/review of Carrera vs M3 for us ? I always love to hear first hand from people that own and drive them as I'm a bit fed up with the endless rehashing that the car mags do.
Interested in Lebreeze's view and don't mean to jack the thread, but I drove a M3 for 3 years before picking up my 991 C2S about a month ago, so I can also offer an opinion. My opinion is quite simple. The 991 is head and shoulders above the M3. The handling is better, razor sharp when compared to the M3. The clutch pedal and gearshift are worlds better (M3 clutch was spongy and shift was sort of rubbery with long throws). And the 991 seems to have a better, linear power delivery off the line as well. The interior is no contest, as the M3 is a dated platform now while the 991 is fresh. The S65 engine in the M3 was special at the upper end of the rev range, though. After a couple of days with the 991, I called the dealer and told him that I think the wrong company has the motto "The Ultimate Driving Machine."
But the fact is, as awesome as the M3 is (I've been a very happy owner), the 911 is in a class of its own. I'll still continue to enjoy my DD and savour the weekends with the 911.

Looks great
Lebreeze, your car looks great! I am thinking about the same combination with rhodium silver and platinum satin wheels for my C2S order. Do you have the PASM sport suspension and the 5 mm spacers?
