I actually compiled this last month... slideshow of many pics with a short startup vid in the middle. It was literally mint in & out... just needed a good wash.

Can't you tell I also liked the car?

Totally not saying this because I want to do it too but don't know how to take apart the sport designs. No way I would push my agenda on you.

LOL! You must know how I like to take stuff apart.... And one of the things I was actually considering even before I saw your comment was painting the upper portions of the mirror housings with matte black! I did think about the lowers, but the way the color flows from the door to the mirror base I personally think would look better. But we'll see! On my GT Silver C4S I made the entire mirror from base on up matte black and I liked it.

I have a list of mods and styling things I'd like to do. But currently dealing with my whole family being sick (stomach bug thingy going around) including me, so the car has been just sitting in the garage since I drove it in there Sunday night! I am dying to get started.....

I see in Bossing's photo you have the clear taillights. I was uncertain if I was a fan of those until yesterday when just coincidentally a white 991.1S with them passed by my pickup truck. I thought it just made the white car look so uniquely clean in its almost pure white and black tones.
You know, I am torn over the clears.... When I first saw the pics of the car, my first question to the sales guy was "do you have the original reds?" The clears in this case were added by the previous owner -- they weren't on the original build sheet.

The other things the previous owner did was swapped the side lights to the "proper" LED clears, and tinted the windows all-around. I am a tiny tiny bit worried that the tint is too dark for conservative PA where I live, so wouldn't be surprised if at some point I have to deal with that -- I mean, the tint is very dark. Oh, and also, surprised when I went to fuel-up that the gas cap was the aluminium-look accessory! Nice little bonus!

Cheers!

If you ever want to see the original red tails on the car, I have a set sitting around, let me know and I can drop them off for you to try them on

Indeed. I've watched many of your videos and read your posts back when I was new here. You are being humble because you must know you're kind of a big deal around these forums.
