My screws were comically expensive for what they were, but rather than figuring out sizing and ordering something through McMaster-Carr, I took the easy way out and just ordered through this link. They are really well made and will never need to be changed: https://titaniumcarparts.com/collect...late-fasteners
Thank you, Brianja, for sharing this -- will order this weekend!
low profile anodized aluminum with titanium hardware. Clean and simple.
A couple of questions. I saw in another thread you don't have a front plate. Any issues here in MD? Also, is GTS available as the rear model designation? Thanks.

So far no issues with running no front tag in MD. My previous F82 M4 also had no issues with no front tag. However, before the M4, my heavily modified E46 BMW would get pulled over all the time. My guess is either the law has been laxed quite a bit since the late 90's early '00s or they target more on heavily modified cars.
GTS badge rear is not an option from the factory. I opted badge removal from the factory and bought the script from the parts dept. afterwards. Cleans the area up nicely vs the full script IMO.

Did you have tints on your e46?
Definitely looks a lot cleaner than the whole 911 carrera XX which is way too long, and definitely different than just 911. Looks great. 👍

Yep, tints were on the E46 -- probably another cop magnet. Though it was legally 35%. The M4 was also 35% and as mentioned, never got pulled over for no front tag.
From lower class to buying a Porsche with cash. I learned a lot at this school and it launched a wonderful life for my family. I'm 30 days away from putting this on the car. I'll smile every time I see it on my C2S.

Ron, my journey is not too dissimilar from yours -- neither of my parents went to college but they insisted that their 3 sons did, who collectively have 7 college degrees between us (one from your Alma Mater). Education has enabled me to buy my second Porsche with cash in 2 years (2021 Cayenne Coupe GTS, which I just love, and now a 2023 911 Targa 4 GTS, which we'll pick up at the Atlanta PEC in March). Unfortunately, I see a lot of angry disagreement on these forums, but I think we can all agree that education and hard work have provided us the opportunities to experience these fine cars and share our preferences about them (hopefully politely!). Drive in good health!!
