Awesome. I download V1Driver and will be testing that out today.

Appreciate the recommendation for iOS apps for my Valentine 1 Gen 2.

 

New 992.2 GT3, had to give it the things all newborns need:

Full 3-step interior leather cleaning, softening, protecting with the Leather Solutions kit recommended by our resident expert from the leather industry, @drcollie




This is my 3rd chalk interior and I’ve never had a problem with dye transfer from my jeans, but maybe using this stuff is why.



Next up: translucent PORSCHE letters from Suncoast, because these just seem to match the car so well and I like a visible Porsche badge.






I packed the side markers in my carry on for the flight, and changed them in the hotel parking lot on the road trip home after PECLA pickup- because I did not want you all to laugh at me when I posted my road trip pix. (Suncoast dark trim OEM)


And lastly, I bought the battery a huge batch of fresh electrons. I’m shocked but not shocked that after 950 miles of driving in it’s first 5 days, this medium-sized 50AH Li-Ion still took FOUR HOURS of charging to top up completely. The alternator is nothing but a maintainer these days with the draw the PCM uses. @Antigravity SC-10 charger/maintainer- it’s awesome.

 

@MAXFPS

Your GT3 looks really good.

 

I like the look of the translucent letters. Do you have a part number?

So I am on their website ordering a kit: dumb question - is the Porsche leather "protected" or 'unprotected"?

 

Agreed! Is that IGM??

 

Thanks!

Mine is the “clear”, though it has a white backing so I’d call it “translucent” not “transparent”. Put them on my Ice Grey T months ago and as long as you clean the original emblem with alcohol first, carefully align and press hard, they go right over the original letters and I’ve had no adhesion problems. I put “anthracite” colored ones on my GTS too.


[QUOTE=WFBlue;20439786]Had to look up my receipt from Leather Solutions, and I ordered the “Protected”. Ordered that after one of @drcollie ’s excellent lessons on leather, so pretty sure I got the right one at the time.

Yep! Really hard to photo, as it looks different in every light. But that’s what I like most about it.

 

I've been on a really bad buying binge lately...Good news for anyone looking for new stuff at a discount.

Deciding between the techarts and the db carbon. Leaning techart...like the more aggressive look.

 

Worked with Mars to activate the HD Matrix function. Can’t wait to try them out. 😁

 

@MAXFPS

Your car looks awesome!

Did you find the pry tool worked better than dental floss or fishing line to remove the old letters?

 

They both look pretty good to me.

 

I like the vents in the first photograph.

 

My single issue purchase of 000 magazine issue 33 (Q1 CY25) arrived which features the 922.2 Carrera T. It just so happen to be a Lugano Blue Cab like mine that the author drove and wrote about in 37 pages including a mini-article comparing the gearboxes of the .2 T, .2 GT3 and 718 GTS 4.0. This the first time seeing the magazine in person, it's loaded with beautiful photography and like 3 pages of adds of 256 total. I think it identifies more as a book than a periodical and actually makes me consider a subscription. Without trying to violate copyright laws, here is a pic of the first page of the article and the cover of this edition.

 

Why remove the black letters? Just clean them with alcohol first and apply them on top. Press hard. Work in reasonably warm conditions. I’ve done it on 3 cars with no adhesion issues.

 

Seconded. The top photo has a much cooler, more aggressive look.
