They've all been a pain. I plugged a tire in my daily driver this summer and used the OEM trunk compressor. Well it has that fix-a-flat in it... I instantly got a high speed vibration. Next oil change they were rebalancing all wheels and had an issue with that one wheel. Turns out the fix-a-flat was the cultrip of it all. Had to pay to have it all cleaned up before it could be rebalanced. It can also cause the TPMS sensor to malfunction. PITA. I would recommend just having plugs and a cheap amazon cigarette lighter compressor on hand.

That plus the OEM tire inflator stored in the 991 frunk near the battery will solve 85% of tire failures and be faster than waiting for AAA. You can plug the tire while the wheel is still on the car (easier on the fronts where you can turn the wheels to access it).

+1, most common tire issue is a nail / screw. This is my favorite of many tire plug kits I've tried because it includes the pliers to remove a nail too. And it's super small.

A good friend, with a second home in Fort Myers, found out from a neighbor (as he is back in Iowa) that his 991 is probably toast as his garage had 18" of dirty salt water in his garage, and the car is totally dead ... as is his wife's MB E class... his Cayenne seemed to survive since it sits a little higher off the ground!
Warning- within the next year or so, don't buy any cars from FL with low miles...

For a moment I thought that was my prior GTS.. I did the same mod, the BMC really improves the aural pleasure. You really here the intake and turbo spool, you will love it
If anyone is looking for a lightly used BMC, only 3K miles then you can have mine half the price of new, PM me

I ordered some clear some clear signals for my new RS. Just my luck that the clear ones I had on my 991 GTS fit all 991’s except the RS.
If anyone is looking for a like new set for a 991 then I just posted a set on the market place.

New Member to the Rennlist 991 community!
Cheers everyone -
I'm a long-time lurker and visitor but just started formally engaging here this week as I just took receipt of a 'new to me' 2016 991.1 GTS w/ PDK this past week!
I still can't believe I finally segued over (as my name suggests) from the BMW world FINALLY, but I'm so grateful and thankful to all the amazing members of the community who have shared insight and reviews on the mods they've tackled here on this particular forum thread.
I spent countless hours reading every post on all nearly 500 pages of activity here going back x-amount of years. THANK YOU to everyone who's contributed.
I started my modding adventure this week with the following off of my 'hit-list' of items that I'd been building prior to my 991.1 purchase.
From Soul Performance: Valved Performance Exhaust w/ Black Chrome Exhaust Tips, BMC Performance Air Filters, and DSC Sport V3 Controller.
From SunCoast: Clear Side-Markers, Frunk Liner, Frunk Liner Hood, Exclusive Sport Gas Cap, Porsche Crest Key Chains, OEM Sunshade, 'Porsche' projector door lights, and 'Carrera GTS' Illuminated Carbon Fiber Door Sills.
From CarbonLution: Inner Carbon Fiber Door Sills
From Vorsteiner: V-GT Carbon Fiber Aero Deck Lid Spoiler. Luckily, Vorsteiner in Garden Grove, CA had ONE new old stock sitting in their warehouse.
From Rennline: 3-Piece Pedal set w/ heel guard, track mats and passenger floorboard in silver. Also the must-have grill guards for the exposed radiators where I found a finger-nail sized pebble amongst leaves! SHEESH!!
From GetPorscheSilverSpringParts.com: GT3 RS Side Skirts
From T-Design9.com: Memory Module and Magnum Magnetic Mount
From ZZ-2.com: ZZPLAY Apple CarPlay
From Amazon.com: Various colored Key Case Covers, Ultra-HD Extreme Clarity Tempered-Glass Protector for the Navigation Screen Display and an OEMTools Trim and Molding Removal Tool Kit.
When the Soul Performance Exhaust kit arrives next week, I'm having HOUSE Automotive in Encino, CA tackle the install of that and the DSC V3 Controller alongside setting a new baseline for my ownership (oil change, spark plugs, BMC air filters, and possible drive belt and brake fluid service upon inspection of the two, alongside a new battery being dropped-in).
When the ZZPLAY Apple CarPlay unit arrives in next week, I'm having that installed alongside the exterior mods like the Vorsteiner spoiler, GT3 RS side-skirts, clear side-markers, Rennline pedal set & grill guards, and then performing a Paint Correction, High Gloss Paint Protection Film from STEK, and Ceramic Pro NanoCeramic Coating to the exterior and wheels.
Which reminds me - my favorite purchase experience this week was a second set of wheels from my first Rennlist community friend @Ecosse911, who sold me his 'next to new' HRE R101LW wheels and tires off his recently sold GTS! He's a great seller and made the transaction a breeze midweek during my 'LA to the Bay' day-trip which was 11hrs roundtrip in the Prius!!
Some pics of the items and install shots of various items I've received the past couple of days below with more updates and photos to come as the parts arrive and go on/in.
Also, any fellow enthusiasts local in the San Fernando Valley area (I'm on the Encino/Tarzana border), I'd love to connect and make some new friends, so feel free to PM me!
Again, thank you to everyone in the community who has shared and contributed to this particular thread over the years. It provided great inspiration and resource for all of my mod selections this (particularly expensive) week.
CHEERS & Much Love!!

My wife bought some for her X-5 with mocha colored seats, she got the terra cotta version. Everytime I get in her vehicle the mats stand out but the color is not over done or too loud. A really nice addition. I didn’t think I would like them as much as I do.

Almost ready for the gt3 conversion, snagged eco’s tech art wing. Doing custom ti exhaust to boot so it will be shown thru the gt3 rear valance. Time to start ordering internal bittys for the bumpers and get this car wrapped gt3 cup style. I have a few companies I wanna advertise on the car that I own so a win win for me.

That is very subjective, of course. I wanted some blue splashed in my interior, I thought this was a nice way to add some color without adding some cheap blue ****, etc (not that I have found many accessories in blue for the 911).
