Just got on the winter shoes and back from the ppf man.

Vossen HF3 in satin black...super happy with the offset.

Front PA5 245/35/r20 on 9" +40
Rear PA5 295/30/r21 on 10.5" +48





I'm having a helluva time respecting the break-in...

Damn man that looks really good! I see you got the ppf done in AMP motorsports, would you recommend them? I am deciding between AMP or the Refinery in downtown. Did you get full body ppf or partial?

AMP did an amazing job...I cant see any seams and they dont skimp on disassembly/assembly if it needs to get done properly.

I did full ppf with a double up on the rear fender to make it look like the OEM foil.

Inside, i did PPF on the piano black..its a kit from xpel and went on smoothly.

Highly recommend them...they loved working on the car and it shows.

Should be a video coming on YouTube.

Took some video using a Rode shotgun microphone and Canon 6D M2...I was alone so this was the best I could do.

Im still trying to break-in but this gives a better sense of the PSE up to 5000 rpm. Like fine wine, the tone just keeps getting better with age!

(Turn up your speakers or wear headphones please...)

Sweet! Thanks PB for taking the time and effort to record and give an idea. It far exceeds 991 TT/S stock sounds.
Tough capturing pure exhaust sound representations without a background of extraneous noises.

Thanks 1Gunner..next time im going out with a buddy and full throttle!

I was planning to mount the Rode mic inside right at the back windshield to capture engine sounds and avoid excessive wind noise. I have done this on my past track days plugging into a Gamin/Go-Pro and seems to give some dynamic audio, even with the windows down, without concern about missing apparatus.

Its always a great day to drive...

As you may have figured out...I love a good pic. These are just a few from a shoot last weekend with @sangomorgan.

I am really impressed with the lines of the 992 TT/S...

Looking VERY good indeed sir!!
I just wish we didn't have to drill our front bumpers and install a damn fuggly license plate, it really spoils the front view IMO....
Not sure how I'll proceed... Risk it or drill it.

Damn.. those are some pretty sexy photos, good job man! Now you are getting me all jealous that I have to wait another 3-4 months to get mine.

I bit the bullet. So many police in Toronto and just a reason to get pulled over for otherwise minor infractions.

Best solution may be RHO plate which is a tow hook solution.. If you have ACC.. Then it sits a bit at a funny angle or you could echo cover one of the sensors.

Get the Carbonio plate...I just ordered one for my C2S Cab...might want to ask them about fit for your front spoiler tho.
