Didn't see much use in a PCA membership for where I live and got tired of seeing Dempsey in sun glasses, so I got rid of the emblem as well.

More relevant is joining the world renowned 84A Club, a one time expense...

What type of screws did you mount those with? On the one I have the screws that came with it are too long, they would hit the cooling fans blades below.

Me too but isn't it obvious you own a Porsche when you have that emblem on your P car?

I'll check but I used the ones that came with. If not I'll just use the ones from the PCA shield.

Just checked and the pins do not touch the fan, which is sunk below the protective mesh. If yours is too long, perhaps screw it into the shield more or cut it off and re-die it if needed

It's for the Feng Shue it adds, balance, harmony while not denoting adherence to either the Ying or the Yang

Back to the studio!

Do you guys know where I can get OEM bolts for 992 battery terminals?

I installed CTEK adaptor cable and I forcibly removed the nuts, off the bolts. No damage done and all is working well, but I would prefer to have new set of bolts. The dealer tells me that they come together with the harness(?)

Honestly, you really need to remove the bumper anyway to clean out the debris that have accumulated (really substantial, despite a very babied 12k miles). Robust design with rock-solid fixation so no rattles/movement -- I think they look fantastic as well.

Apologies for the suboptimal photos, as my car needs a wash


You had to remove the headlights to remove the bumper to install the grills?

Default New speaker!

My driver door speaker was blown when we bought this car a year ago and I figured I'd have it replaced under warranty with the next dealer service.

Buuut the dealership is an hour away so when the oil was due I just did it myself. And to get the speaker replaced I'd probably have to leave the car, so it would mean hanging out in RI for some number of hours or getting a ride to and from the dealership for a total of 4 hours of driving.

So anyway I just paid out of pocket for the speaker and replaced it myself. Super easy.

What's wrong with hanging out in RI for a few hours?
