Question How much $ have you spent on aftermarket parts?

I'm curious to see how much money you guys have spent on aftermarket parts so far on your 991. I personally have spent almost $5k in the last 2 months that I've owned it, and still have about another $15k to spend until I'll be content lol. Pls feel free to include track dedicated wheels/tires in the equation.

So far I've bought:
Clear corner markers
AWE Switchpath Exhaust
Wheel Spacers
Painted Entry & drive key
New console button cluster with PSE button
Window Tint

Wish List:
HRE Wheels
Coil-overs
Techart Type 2 spoiler
Pilot SC2 tires for track use

Sorry I guess I voted improperly. (0-500)

I have a 2nd set of wheels/tires simply for convenience so I can always have a set ready to go when I wear the current set down to slicks.

So I guess my new vote would be (1001-5000)

Only thing I truly bought in my almost 3 years of ownership is a set of Weathertech mats and a Blendmount.

Does this include all the posters, books, shirts, mugs, hats, autocross fees, track insurance, etc. that I have bought?

The only thing that I purchased that can be considered aftermarket is an XPEL Track Package.
The car was ordered to my specifications and anything else such as winter wheels/tires is Porsche.
So I voted for $1k to $5k.-Richard
I did order a Rho-plate V2 that I keep in the frunk for emergency display!

Almost nothing. Porsche indoor car cover, lumbar seat pad, homemade wind buffet winglets, and an iPhone connector. Car needs nothing but gas and servicing for the rest of its life.

I don't even have the car yet and am over $3k between winter tires and a clear bra


I'll pick up a set of wheels for it in the first year, and I've been casually reading up on exhaust options... we'll see how long I can keep it down to "only" four figure spending...
