Thank you! Nice to see how a simple OEM to OEM wheel swap can substantially change the look of the car.

Of course-i believe these are the ones here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Zebra-Car-F...YAAOSwjDZYl-s0

It says that they are only front sets sent-however I received both front and rear mats when they arrived. Keep in mind it took about 6-8 weeks for them to arrive as they are made to order depending on color and stitching and they come from China. Fitment is decent-I would give it a 7.5 out of 10 fitment wise but overall cant complain for the price paid.

I'm going to be the proud owner of a used Sapphire Blue 991.1 C2S soon. I don't even have the car yet and I've already purchased:

- T-Design9 phone mount
- Covercraft custom WeatherShield HP car cover
- US Mill Works tow hook license plate holder
- Magnagrafik magnetic stone guard

I'm no stranger to car modifications, but boy this 911 is going to be an expensive hobby!

Any other "must-have" or favorite purchases for the 991.1S?

Hardwired my V1 mounted on the passenger side with the mirror-tap kit. Most painless hardwire I've done in any vehicle. Thanks to @go.illini for your write-up!

My ProClipUSA iPhone mount also arrived yesterday. Will install that today so that I finally have somewhere decent to put my phone.

The transformation is dramatic! Very well done sir!

I almost didn't notice the wheels over the gloss on your car! What is your secret to such depth and shine?

Default Replaced the universal mount with a magnetic phone mount ...

Thx to T-Design for the great product and service !! The magnet is very strong and not a chance my phone will move no matter how enthusiastic my driving is!

Default Bought some of the "easier" mods

I am no mechanic so doing anything to my car feels like an accomplishment. Having refinished my wheels in Hyper Silver recently I decided to take on some of the more common mods. So picked up the Euro Clear Turn Signals lens and some chrome Targa logos for the targa bar. Also put one of those silly red stickers on the boost button in the middle of the Sports Mode selector...because why not? hahahaha

Think I need the magnetic phone holder next. Also thinking to replace the black brushed aluminum plate around the center console as it has a some scratches. Question is could I get away with silver brushed aluminum despite the rest of the metal trim on the dash and doors being black brushed aluminum?


Bought the Euro Clear Markers

Looked easier on Youtube but got it done! Second one went faster.

Had considered wrapping the targa bar in 3M brushed aluminum but thought I would try a cheaper solution first. Switched out the black targa logo for chrome.

Matches the newly refinished wheels.
