I would not mess with it, if you pay the money and then it does not come out perfect or starts sagging down the road then it could end up being a real pain and you could end up doing it more than once.

That’s what I am thinking …not to mention the 5k$ + labor …. On a 0$ option ! 🤯

I know how it feels to forget something on an order like this - SO many decision, wish Porsche had AI in their configurator …

If you’re like me these things sting for a while based on making the mistake, then mostly fade as you realize the car is awesome, it’s 99.9% perfect and only you will ever know that was a thing.

My advice would be to at least wait a few weeks to see if it still bugs you - to @Diablo Dude ’s point you won’t look up a lot as you’ll be engaged driving!

Off topic question. Are those the standard pdls headlights? Or black? When i spec’d my order it wouldn’t let me order black ones. Yours seem great but now I’m worried they are black pdls.

I cannot believe I made such a mistake … ordering Touring is a bit different than the wing GT3 …because the wing comes automatically with Race tex ….on The Touring you have to go in the Race Tex section and check the box …I am furious !




I can purchase the OEM A & B Pilar’s (800$ each ) and the headliner ($2700) ….which soooooo expensive for forgetting a 0$ option 😡😡😡

I am still debating about doing it …but I had everything else so meticulously picked out …including exchanging me bucket seats inserts with the 911 R silver and black houndstooth…

Question: how easy is it to exchange ? ….the A Pilar seem straight forward ….but the B with the seat belt and the headliner seem tricky .?….
anyone has insights on this ? …can the dealer do it and get like factory results ? ….

I might be mistaken, but I think that you can only get the PDLS headlights in black if you also spec the Touring Package in Black.
If you dont have the latter, you cant get the former.

Those are the standard lights (not black).

I didn’t see it mentioned, but don’t forget the seatbelt outlets in racetec as well

Have no opinion on the headliner (I have alcantara in my 991) but I want to say that your floor mats look brilliant! Is that broderie an option in the 992?

Those look like Lloyd mats - I have a set like that in my 991.
Lloyd Mats

Been around p-car community forever, but apparenly purchased by Covercraft!

EDIT: actually looks like Lloyds now won't allow use of Gt3 or of course PORSCHE due to trademark @GT3007 who did the GT3 front mat?
