How long do you expect the wait will be? I have a friend doing ED in November.

We completed our trip about 2 weeks ago. They quoted us 4-6 weeks to the east coast but I’m setting my expectation low and think more around 6-8 weeks. Hoping I’m wrong!

Thanks for the feedback!

I was looking for a unique flooring design and I saw several examples of the metallic epoxy on Pinterest. Cost was approximately $6k $CAD installed. (Not sure how labour and materials break down). The area covered is approximately 16’ x 42’. Not sure how it compares cost wise with other options as I didn’t shop them. As for maintenance my plan is to sweep and mop + squeegee. I have not yet actually cleaned it yet, but I don’t think it will be too bad. I’m definitely noticing some tire marks:


But they seem to come off easily enough. Not sure about oil spills yet but beer cleans up easily with a dog and paper towels.
As for the lights I got them from a seller on Amazon (Koitry Wholesale) for ~$700 $CAD each. They consist of a series of light tubes and connectors- you can customize this layout if desired. Installation was done by an electrician and his assistant- this took 3 days in my case. They are incredibly bright, but I love them and the way it all works together.

Just personal reasons. The Do88 looks like a great products.

But price point of the CSF(got it at pelican for 10% off with PCA member code $3918) , availability, made in USA, and didn’t want the carbon parts that come with the do88.

don’t think you can go wrong with either setup. I chose do88 since the plenum was made by them and I wanted all the upgraded piping and carbon parts. I just got the turbo inlet hoses as well that I need to swap this week.

How are you going to get your car back? Just curious.

Will it be an epic Phoenix --> Houston road trip in a fully tuned and modded Porsche 911? If so, I'm jealous

He probability brought the module along with him instead of shipping it overnight.

​​​​​@Tupper i brought the pdk module with me on the flight 😝. I didn’t think the manual shifting could get faster, but boy was I wrong.

Yep it's OEM. It's the "GTS" part of the visually noise "911 Carrera GTS" rear badge for the 992. Here you go:


I also got a 992 GT3 badge template thinking it will help me center align to the bumper. I know the bumpers of the two are slightly different, but the left/right centering should be the same. However, when the parts finally came in, the GTS badge is about 11% smaller than the 992 GT3 badge (19mm tall vs 21mm tall) Since I'm still a few weeks out to delivery, I can't say if the template is helpful or not, nor if the 11% delta will make it look odd. I'll find out in a few weeks!
