ultimate cup holders (plastic-dipped them black)
aluminium (look) - gas cap
covered ugly yellow sun visor warning graphics

- spendy, but I'm happy with all the little add-ons. will post a pic once i get the stone guards and Zunsports installed.

How did you cover your sun visor warning stickers? (I've seen the thread on how to remove them, but not sure I'm that adventurous with my new car...)

I didn't have the guts to do that either. I bought vinyl cut decals from a seller on eBay (nfldcoffee). The product is called Porsche Sun Visor Cover Up decals 991. they were not expensive ~$10. they fit perfectly, are easy to install and blend right into the visor.

Hope this helps.

[QUOTE=Bob Z.;15806716]Thanks. I asked Mike if he could make them Black and he said he tried but since they are meant to flex he said it might not last long so he leaves it up to those that buy them. I found that 2 of the 4 coasters in the set sold by WeatherTech fit perfectly at the bottom:


The beauty of Plasti-Dip is that it is flexible. Thanks for the tip regarding the WeatherTech coasters.

Exclusive Options will assist you with that little problem. They will stitch you up a new set in Alcantara or matching leather in about three weeks. For years I promised myself that I would have it done on the C-car, but never did. Just installed on the "50".
Its a bit pricey, but worth it.
Just my 2 cents.....

They are very easy to remove though and there is zero risk of damaging anything using alcohol and paper towels! I have been doing this for years and have never had any problems.

Roof racks! One tip, you have to loosen the bar adjusters when first putting them on.

I'll second this. Some denatured alcohol, some old microfiber cloths, and some patience. You won't mess this up.

*this is for the standard pleather visors. YMMV with alcantara or real leather visors, you fancy people!

I guess in this one area I'm fancy! Has anyone done this with OEM alcantara visors? Still the same procedure? No possibility of damage?

I did the ones in my wife's SUV and used heat at first with a hairdryer and slowly pulled them off - try that first. And then you can use alcohol and it will not hurt anything.

Your interior looks spectacular Bob! Nice work. I like what you did with the centre of the steering wheel!! Looks great. Cheers.

Thanks, lots of little things such as what you mentioned along with others that are more subtle like the Black ring on the Sport Chrono (like on the GT cars), numbers/letter on the shifter, etc. I am working on a Blue ring for the mode dial that comes off the steering wheel and maybe the 2 PCM *****, as well as getting a new targa decal for the dash trim that is smaller and that I will right justify it as on the new Speedster.

Bob - your car looks great, I love all of the small details.
