Installed AWE Air Foiler devices. Seems to work ok, but now I've got a wind whistle with my driver window up that I need to look into.
Installed a new battery, the car had the original from 2012! (2013 MY car)

I also installed the AWE air foiler and love it.

Yeah, did that, still getting wind noise. I think it has to do with where the rubber of the triangle of front hits the window, but not sure. I haven't spent the time to investigate. Thanks for the suggestion though!

A Porsche Touch-Up paint kit from Suncoast, my local dealer, about $22.
I have had a couple 1mm rock chips on the front snout for the longest time, felt it was time to attempt to do something about them. I'm no Michelangelo, that's for sure, but after a few painstakingly applied layers over the last several days (4), using a wood toothpick from a single paint drop sitting on small flat plastic jar cover, they are starting to fill in. You should be able to spot the little dot left, about 2" opposite the "L" in Lackstift (It's still wet, so a little proud. They flatten right out when dry). I'm waiting for this last go round, then will dab on a little clear lacquer, then give the car a once over with my Griot's polisher with a blue pad and some Speed HD. Mine is a daily driver, not a garage queen, so I know they aren't going to be invisible, but I'm happier knowing there's paint there now.

Not, really because I am good at this. It took me several days of work dropping in the smallest blobs of paint with the toothpick, then going over it with Flitz to smooth it out. I’d say at least five times. But I kept at it. At least it’s filled in now.

I would but the dings are virtually unnoticeable now.

Why Flitz?

With a Black Friday discount from an already cheap retailer I couldn’t resist:
If my car were any color other than red I wouldn’t bother, but the stock taillights on a Guards Red 911 just get lost.
Mine:
What it will look like soon:
Tail Lights - Darkened - Porsche (991-044-902-22)
