To me the wing finishes the car off! I have the NR Racing's version and really like it. I did notice though that the wing blade will bounce slightly when hitting bumps so I made a small piece for the center of the wing which attaches by double sided tape to the ducktail and the blade and took care of that.

Looks great! Am trying to wrestle with ‘man maths’ to justify getting 20” forged Apex wheels for my 991.2 Carrera T!

Bought her some racing stripes today while I await the Numeric shifter! 😍

@oronymo I did. Works great and stays in place regardless of g-forces.



I used a 3M command strip.

Bought SOUL bypass pipes with o2 spacers, a Uniden R8 detector with hardwire kit and a Dragy. The Rennlist thread on the hardwire install was super helpful. Took 15 mins and totally worth it.

Just realized the crest is not pointing where it should. Forgot to say something when I got the tires installed. Whelp

Today I realized my engine cover latch has come disconneted from the actuator . I have the duct tail so gaining access to the actuator is proving to difficult for me so a trip to the dealer will be required .

This is a friendy reminder to make sure your engine cover latches are securly fastened. This is a terrible design by the engineers at Porsche.

Have a good day all.

Nice and simple install (command strip with magsafe mount)! The only downside to that position is it blocks the cupholder

Why not lol. Loved the sound of that thing, but would pick a 911 any day of the week.



Maybe this is where my love for these wheels came from-

I used the Rennline magmount with their magsafe addition mounted next to the PCM. It also blocks the cupholder, but I bought one that mounts to the side of the console that works much better.

The Brembo calipers looks a lot like the GT3 calipers which makes sense because they’re also made by Brembo.
Just got them back. They are a bit darker than what I expected but I like them. The last set they did for me didn’t have multiple layers of high temp clear coat so they were closer to the actual color. It’s supposed to be Porsche Acid Green. According to my guy the extra layers change the color. Going to get them ceramic coated along with the wheels so they stay nice.

@oronymo Only when the phone is mounted.
I can just pull off the phone and use it if I want, but I rarely do.
