Default Special Tools or accessories needed for our cars?

Hi all,

In anticipation of my Cabriolet in 2 weeks, are there any special tools or accessories or general goodies I may need for future?

I already have some low clearance ramps & general tools.

Any tips or recommendations appreciated.

Before my 911 came in i ordered the black rubber floor mats which i really like and the clear LED side markers Along with a bunch of detailing supplies.

Since ive had the car i ordered a porsche flag for the garage to cover the service panel and i framed the window sticker

Good luck on the car

People actually store 991s for the winter? Why?

I picked up a set of these jack pads. They work out great. I was plesently surprised that discount tire used similar pads when they installed my new tires.

+1 on carrying a plug kit. The slime should only be used as a last resort and anything it would fix is probably a pretty slow leak to begin with.
