@nextlevelauto Congrats on your pickup! You've made a great call having Phil do your PPF installation... I've known him for years and started off buying supplies from him nearly 18 years ago now! He did the install on my 991.1 and will do a good job for you.

I plan on posting my start to finish diary of this build process and comparison to my 991.1

Already bought:

mirror tap for my redline radar detector
clear side lamps
akrapovic slip on
appt with Detailer's Domain for PPF and ceramic coating (Phil is one of the best in the NY/NJ area)

Need to look into:

dash cam
GT3 side skirts (already built with aerokit sideskirts which now I kinda regret)
sport cats or catless with tune (I hope I don't want or need it)
smarttop (had it in my 991)
That's awesome! Congrats! I still have a couple more weeks but hoping mine arrives before New Years.
On the PPF, do you find 3rd party preferable over doing it with the dealer? Do they use better product or are they priced better?
Out of curiosity, what is the akrapovic slip on?

In house or vendors dealers use is a toss up from what I'm reading on the forums

In house should be cheaper than a real deal detailer
If they use an outside vendor, it will always be more as dealers will pad the cost with their profit

The akrapovic is the exhaust everyone on the this forum talks about and has made me poorer because of it haha

TYD shows my car, on the Felicity Ace which left today, arriving in Davisville on 1/14 and at my dealer on 1/21. Totally impossible as the Felicity Ace is supposed to get to Davisville around 12/24 or so.

Others have remarked in the past that once your car gets on the boat, you can forget about the validity of TYD….just follow your boat online at any number of sites.

That's exactly what mine is showing as well. It certainly doesn't make sense. I'm hoping it makes it to the dealer the last week of the year or first week of next year worst case.
