New outer door sill as previous sill was heavily scuffed from previous owner.

Install took 45 mins...trim removal tool to pry up old sill, 3M wheel to remove prior adhesive, polish to remove last minor remnants and rubbing alcohol before applying new sill.

I had the sense that the 3m wheel is effective on removing adhesive that is dry and firm, thus the overall process may be quicker not using heat or adhesive remover.

I bought one! Added a .2 RS in Miami Blue to the stable with the 997 GT3!! Coming from a 997, I CANNOT believe the difference in fit, finish, and overall feeling.

I'm looking forward to seeing it. I am crazy in love with that color, which I had on my 718 Cayman S. I'd love to have a TTS in that color, but alas, I've never seen a 991 TTS in that color.

Just looked at it, that's a great deal you got!! The VIN isnt too far from mine, either. We have identical spec, except mines AWD and manual. Good luck and wishing you many happy miles.

Congrats on a car that sounds like a gem........any pics from the dealer? I stand with @996scott on this.

And I purchased driving gloves for my car the other day.......I hate shiny leather so hopefully the gloves will prevent this.
