Have one black and one purple, but the purple one has the more complicated (original design) belt retainers on the sides and I decided to switch over to the pink with the newer, easier-to-use (though possibly a little less secure) design. All the purple ones at my local WalMarts have the older retainers, and WalMart doesn't seem to carry pink, so I had to go to Amazon.
Note when I say "complicated" I mean "complicated for a 5 y/o girl", and I want the girl in question to be able to get in and out without help... Besides, she has bought the "pink = girl stuff" thing hook, line and sinker so she thinks the pink one is just fabulous. And she's tickled, uhhh, 'pink' that the engine is in the back of the car and loves to ride in it, so this "upgrade" should be a home run. The Boy is happy to have basic black.
I know Suntek paint protection has been chatted about quick ask, were does the car chip the most ?
Local person using Suntek will do bumper, hood, fenders, headlights, wing mirrors, rockers and splash guard (in front of rear wheels at the bottom) for 1500 total.
- do I need to do the rear quarter panel complete ? Will it chip in the back of the rear wheel ?
- do I need to do the front fenders behind the front wheels at the bottom ?
- just do partial front fenders and hood ?
Any help would be grateful, of were you get the most chipping and debris, so I know were the value add is and not .
Thank you
Experience may vary; I have a wide body. Apart from normal stone chips on the front surfaces, the parts of my car that have gotten most beaten up are: the bottom of plastic side skirts, the painted area in front of rear wheel arches, the painted surfaces inside of the rear wheel arches and the painted bottom of rear skirt behind rear wheels.
I would thus advise getting a race kit (front bumper, full hood, all of front fenders, mirrors) rockers and side skirts, rear fenders in front of rear wheel, painted surface inside of rear wheel arches, and the painted bottom of the rear skirt behind the rear wheels.
My windshield is also pretty pitted, so you may want to think about options to protect that too.
About to pull the trigger on a set of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s for my 991 GTS. The stock P Zeros have been ok but I know that the Cup 2s will give me more grip for my upcoming track days.
I installed the extended height center console in black to add to my two tone interior. I followed the dIY thread found here on RL. Excellent info too but I did find the seatbelt trim pieces (see pics) a bit challenging to release. All other info was excellent! I really like the look and the comfort of this "mod"! Is it worth $355? Idk, but it was my bday! And there is definitely more room under the lid now (holds a LC9 mm nicely)!
Just finished installing new steering wheel from shadow993... so much better than the base wheel! No more stupid shift buttons! Install was super easy, I'm glad I did it myself.
Please post results of this. I am Very interested in results!
Mine goes in this week for similar upgrades.
IPD plenum

Need to find a place to do a flash upgrade at some point also. Looking to hear the results from Mdftx1's update also.
