Couple questions

i want to retrofit some alcantara pieces into my 991.1 TTS...anybody have a good supplier?

second question...I want lighter weight seats that are still adjustable...which seat do you recommend that will retain some comfort for long drives...also which Porsche seats are the lighter carbon fiber but still retain the recline adjustability?

Not bought by me, but Mrs. Darlinboy knows what I like, and it’s Father’s Day after all. And technically, these are my first mods on this car, so the ice is broken.

How wide is the red center stripe at the top of the wheel? I made one for mine but it looks a little wide.

Installed my 7mm FVD spacers in the back, I had them sitting arround from my 997 years.
Been doing research and saw a ton of people installing 15mm in the back. I was thinking to do the same, then started questioning it for some reason knowing I will got to 305 tire in the rear. Started looking to get 10 or 12mm and then thought to myself why dont I try what I already have sitting on the shelve.
Well I have no idea how the hek people put 15mm in the back when 7mm looks like it probably shouldnt go further.

Before:




After with 7mm. I think going with 305 at this point will be perfect.

Nice! I have 7mm spacers all around on my Carrera T and I think they’re just right!

Please post some pics. How easy/hard is the installation? I might be interested to get the black one from you if I can tackle the installation.

I'll have pics a little later

Install isn't hard at all, just takes time.

It transforms your interior for sure

I'm trying to figure out if I can get an aftermarket Carplay in my Porsche 711 Type 9

I've found this blog and they say you can: Carplay for my Old Porsche

Can someone confirm?
