Nice to see someone likes color like I do! Dusting paint? I found a few little items inside that are Miami Blue candidates...paint on the way if I cannot wrap them. And you buy gauge trim rings that go over your stock ones or paint the ones already there?

new 991.2 c2 owner here, already put on clear side markers, and waiting for a sport lip, still debating between techart and h&r springs, i think im leaning towards techart because h&r drop looks a bit too slammed for the roads here

Search this forum on opinions on lowering and report back when you buy something, to keep with the theme of this thread.

Red vs. Clear
Has anyone out there "shown" their cars with clears? If so, has it cost you a point or two?
Am I a bit OCD with my rides? Not really...The V-Sport has not been washed since November!!!

I am not sure, at this point, to put the red ones on the market. I still have a nagging feeling that it will cost me points at Concours.

Yeah, I know I posted the same thing in the Carrera T Pictures thread, but I think this post makes more sense on this thread so, here we go...
This week I did a few upgrades:
First, I wasn't too happy with the chromed 911T badge I had installed on the engine grille. Since I have no other chrome pieces, it looked out of place.
For that reason, I decided to paint it with a paint kit from ScratchWizard. The color match is perfect for GT Silver.
And since I was going into "paint mode", I decided to also paint the sides of my key to match my car.
I think it now looks like it came like that from the factory.
Checking the color match and the contrast against Agate Gray mirrors:
Trim installed and matching key:
And I also got to install the 70th anniversary plaque I bought from Dave @wdr911 (Thanks Dave!!!).
The plaque is very nicely made, and makes perfect sense in my T, because it is a 2018, and also because of the message...
What do you think?
Cheers!
