Finally pulled the trigger on the set of TPC Racing Sway Bars + Drop Links for sale in the marketplace (thanks Bob!). Talked to a few people including my local shop and they all confirmed the change will make a noticeable improvement so figured I would take the plunge. Already have the DSC V2 module and apparently the two work quite well together, we shall see!

Okay...I'll join the party....Planned this for a while every since I picked up my new to me CPO '13 Carrera S in trade for my '14 Cayman S both in Agate Gray. Car was nicely optioned with SPASM, PDK, and a few other goodies but lacked two things specifically I'd wanted. Those were PSE and the moonroof option. Thought the car was rather sedate with the OEM regular mufflers and kinda dark inside with the standard sunroof so after a bit of research and also quite a bit of Q&A between my dealer's Master Porsche Technician, Porsche, and a few aftermarket vendors...I added:

1) OEM Porsche Moonroof retrofit
2) PSE console and vaccum tube retrofit
3) PSE programming for #2
4) Rennline Front Bumper Grilles [black]
5) OEM Porsche Center Radiator kit
6) Akrapovic Ti Catback Sport Performance Exhaust
7) MACarbon CF interior trim retrofit (dash & center console)
8) IPD 991 Pleneum
9) 991.2 GT Multifunction Steering wheel
10) 991.2 Steering wheel Airbag

All of the above except item #7 were done by my dealer service dept while I handled the CF interior retrofit myself as a DIY (took me about 30 mins over an evening beef along with re-packing my OEM silver trim). The GT4 991.2 wheel does directly bolt on and work with the 991.1 generation cars...HOWEVER the multi-function controls do no code and the dealer couldn't get the new wheel controls to recognize and activate/work on the tester. So they replaced my old OEM wheel back on the car. Options include A) obtaining the 991.2 multi-function control module and seeing if that can be installed to control the wheel and also talk to the car's as well OR B) getting either a 991.1 Sports Design wheel + MF stalk or a 991.2 GT wheel minus controls and adding the MF stalk from the 991.1. Technician is not sure if option A) will work and I am willing to try IF the 991.2 module is returnable/refundable. Otherwise its likely option B as the OEM 991.1 MF wheel is just an eyesore to me. Not attractive at all. My old 981 Cayman S was ordered with the Sports Design wheel for a reason! If so will just sell the 991.2 MF wheel and airbag since they were special order items.

Must say MACarbon's quality and service was outstanding! Even included a tool kit to remove the parts and a CF cleaning kit also. Top notch parts and quality for all. My AZ dealer did a great job on the car and I was pleased with the result and even the overall cost...until the car was hit by an SUV driver 3 days later during a trip to Las Vegas while leaving a casino parking garage...but that's another story and post. Didn't get to take many pics post upgrade for you guys due to the trip then accident [vehicle is now at the body shop] but will do so when I get it back out of the body shop...hopefully soon.

WOW!!!

Those are some extensive and great mods. Way to make the car the way you want it.

Hope the damage wasn't too bad.

I agree with you, the .1 MF wheel should be killed with fire and to my eye, the .1 Sport Design wheel is one of the best looking steering wheels ever made. It was a must have for me.

I see a number of folks looking to "upgrade" their .1 with the new .2 wheel but the only thing I am not in love with on the new .2 cars is the steering wheel. Wonder if I can do a down grade once I get my .2 CS?

Keen to know when you get the 991.2 steering wheel mod working

Ok, I just took delivery of my 99.2 Targa 4S. I purchased the clear LED side markers from Suncoast. Dealer told me he would install at N/C for me. When I went to pick up my tags and get new markers installed the salesman informed me that because they are LED, there is a chance of them messing with the PCM, getting fault codes and making me responsible if anything happens. He said if I would replace those lights with regular bulb lights there would not be an issue. I looked at my current OEM orange markets and LOOK LIKE LED's!!! Does anyone know if the new 991.2 have stock LED side markers??

Hi guys-
Well it looks like I'm not the the only one that really wanted the new .2 steering wheel for my '13 CS2 Cab. I found this one on eBay. This one is the non-multifunction PDK version. These are "remanufactured" wheels. Meaning they are OEM parts that are re-wrapped to make them slightly thicker and with the 12 o'clock red ring on mine. They also used a nice light grey stitch that looks awesome. This is a real upgrade. One thing I didn't realize is how much quicker the paddles are. The travel is VERY short. Like probably half the travel of my standard sport wheel. It makes shifting gears even more fun. Just a slight pull changes gears. So cool. I also want to point out how much this changes the feel of the whole car. It's got a real premium chunkiness to it. Tough to describe. I bought this with the airbag and doing it myself was a snap. Just like the alcantara wheel I replaced. Also, I think it just looks EPIC.

Thanks-
Alec

BTW- I'll be putting my alcantara wheel, arm rest and shift lever in the classifieds soon. Great condition if you're interested. I will also have the original airbag for sale too.

Well, now I've got 2(!) sport Design wheels from the .1 version. One leather, one Alcantara. Happy to sell you one! The Alcantara version has a red ring and stitching. It's pretty sweet.

I bought it from this guy:

He was great. No issues. Exactly as expected. Super not cheap though. What is with these cars?

my MF 991.2 wheel may be up for sale soon on ebay too since it won't work with my 991.1 so far from a programming aspect. Adding it and the MF stalk just defeats the purpose. If anyone is interested in it...PM me.

I bought my 991S some Motul 600 brake fluid, Pagid RS29 pads and new OEM rotors. My puppy was overwhelmed with excitement watching me bleed the brakes.



But then UPS delivered the rotors. FINALLY, something for Sox to do...eat the boxes! It was a good day for all.
