There is part of me that wants to just go Gloss Black and Yellow Porsche Lettering... I just personally can't stand the flat black/grey ones that come on the car and feel like it needs to stand out more. Maybe High Gloss Agate and Yellow letters or something like that... but they should be gloss painted either way.

[QUOTE=AdamIsAdam;18865268]I did it myself but at my friend's shop, so I had the car on a lift. With that being said, this is an extremely easy car to DIY oil change. You'll need the car up on either ramps, jack stands, or ideally QuickJacks. You really want the car level when draining the pan. You can follow this DIY video (see below). I do have one important tip to share: when the car is cold, remove the engine cover (which requires that you open the radiator and oil caps and reinstall them - doing that later on a hot engine can be both messy and dangerous). (I changed brake fluid at the same time, which is why my wheels were off.)
I bought a good 36mm oil filter cartridge socket but any 36mm should do. I also already own the oil plus removal tool, but I think you can use a screwdriver. I like to use the right tools - it makes me feel like I know what I'm doing lol.
I found somewhere that the engine holds 8.3qts. DO NOT OVER FILL A FLAT 6 ENGINE. They do not like that! In fact, the manual calls for the proper oil level to be about 75% between the full and add marks. For me, I added 7.5qts and later needed the additional .5 qt to bring it to 8. Now I'm at that 75% full mark. Perfect!
Oh, and get a long funnel or one with a long tube.
I'll post some useful pics below, and also a good video to watch.
Thank you, Much appreciated.

Base Carrera PDK reaches 312 km/h indicated (~194 mph). That's at least 300 km/h (186 mph), after subtracting speedometer error.
Carrera T sits 10 mm lower, could/should go even faster.
At 5:23

Also my favorite pic! For the exact same reason... Could not be happier with the Yellow/Rubystar Combo, and even though I know its controversial, I cant wait to get my calipers painted yellow with Rubystar "PORSCHE" Lettering.... I could be talked into black letters too though if people think thats too much
here’s a quick site I found with the decals:
