Techart wing spoiler came in today thanks to Tag Motorsport. It’s pretty solid/firm. Almost seems more durable and heavier than spoilers I got for my previous modded cars plus it came with a bonding sealant instead of double sided tape. Off to paint in a couple weeks.

I noticed eBay sells a ton of replica spoilers in carbon fiber but did not want to take the chance on those.

I love tint! I wanted to preface that before saying, for those who are risk averse, any tint on your windshield below the AS1 line exposes you to extreme liability in any accident. Just a friendly reminder.

The body is plastic but the trim is actual metal and it feels 100x nicer than the stock gas cap.

Gen Z are into baggy pants and mom jeans. Millennials are the ones into skinny jeans and get roasted by the youngins for it.

Unsure about getting it safely right as they’d never done any before.

Any updates? I think I'm more anxious than you are. Haha.

Let us know how the install and programming goes. My local dealership stated they no longer have a method to code it. Apparently Porsche put some restrictions on their dealership software (...or so I was told).

They did not mention that and they were the ones to order the parts.

Thanks for your concern!

Nipped over to the shop last night after work and waited an age for the Porsche Tech to turn up after he'd finished work. Lovely chap with his 6ft long breaker bar!

Man the poor sod had a workout getting these on and off. He was properly sweating at the end!

Apologies for the crappy images as I had to take them as the sun was setting last night and again this morning in early morning light.

Worth noting that these wheels took very little balancing which to my untrained eye suggests they are machined to very good tolerances.

Also put on MPS4S which are so much f**king better than the crappy PZeroes I've removed; tight, crisp turn in, no tramlining. Love these tyres.





Makes me feel like a GT3-wannabee!

How much was this? I checked their website but couldn't find it.
