Default RY config I am considering …

Hi all - I am new to the forum and I have been thinking about a 992 for a while. I really like RY and Aero. Trying to keep it close to $150k our the door. My current config I am considering: http://www.porsche-code.com/PLTPSGM3



Any feedback on items I may have missed? Thanks!

Nice! I'd definitely go for the yellow clock and maybe the yellow tach!

Thanks - would need to see it in person to make sure not too yellow for me. May yellow contrast stitching but not sure if it is available.

My suggestions.

Paint calipers black to avoid Ronald McDonald look.

Get the LED Matrix headlights in black

Tinted tail lights.

No need for yellow tach, chrono, stitching or belts. The exterior color loud enough.

Carbon roof would look sick if you can swing it.

Get rid of carbon interior if the aforementioned put you over budget.

Don’t forget the Sport Design side skirts. Really completes the Aero kit package.

I’m against the colored dials. Especially on the SC dial, I don’t want it popping anymore than it already does lol

I second adding sport design side skirts.

Also consider blacking out the “Porsche” on the rear

Great build btw!

Thanks for all the input. Agree with skirts and black calipers. Also prefer the clear tail lights. Those add $3+k. Killed the RY belts and heated steering to minimize the impact. I want to keep the CF trim though. Sat in one with it and really liked it. I may end up skipping the clear tail lights it budget becomes an issue … Appreciate all the input!

I second the side skirts.

this is similar to what I’m looking at. Yellow with aero.

Looks great!

i think yellow dials is too much yellow. I even think yellow belts may be.

Great exterior color. For the dials, consider first driving and vision comfort for you - what will it be like looking down at yellow dials, with your eyes having to adjust? That's what kept me from having colors on my dials.

Yellow PCCB’s on it would be killer if you could muster up the extra change

Just ordered mine yesterday, with largely the same build Including PEC LA). Concur with emphasizing the black exterior where possible for that contrast. Have you sat in both the 14 & 18 way seats? Some have indicated the extra bolstering can be confining day to day, unless wanted for track purposes. As for the belts, those can be swapped out later if the RY turns out to be too much. Not so much for the dials. The tach one is just a band, but now I'm thinking I agree with the prior posts and may delete the SC coloring . . .

Leave it as is. Yellow with yellow brakes seems like overkill. The red brakes brake it up nicely, or did the black painted brakes.
