Congrats! That looks fantastic! Such an epic color. Hope to see it sometime around town since I am also in Cincy. When I spec'd my Targa I really wanted a green with the Heritage cognac interior but Aventurine had just been discontinued and Kings couldn't get me PTS. I think Gentian Blue was a nice second choice. Are those the Zunsport grills in your bumper? I am debating add those since my buddy was the victim of a rock to the radiator a few years ago to the tune of like $2k to replace the radiator on his 911. Did you install them or did Beachwood?

I installed the grill guards once it was delivered. Did that, my mirror tap and uniden install, clear markers up front, tint on the red rear reflectors, etc. I looked at the RGS and Zunsports. I liked how the ZS installed and were a bit thicker grills. Took about 15 minutes to install and fit great. I preferred the install over the RGS ones (or whatever the others are called). and look good too!

I like the look of the quad exhaust better, and I did the exhaust mod (again - did it on my last 2) - where it goes into PSE mode when in sport/sport+. 80% of the sound of the true PSE for free..
Since this is my daily and I have the GT3T and 720s - both are loud (loud enough), I enjoy my sewing machine sound in this one :-)

This is definitely a color, if you want green looking all the time (think Oak Green Metallic) which I considered as my 1st choice when I was thinking of PTS colors... This Dark Olive looks like liquid (hard to explain) black or charcoal in the dark, partially cloudy, or anything but direct sun/light. Only in brighter conditions do you see the metallic green. Many we have seen on PTS 911s recently did the oak green, so I decided to do something different. And about 80% of my 911s have been black over the years, I figured I would not get tired of this shade of green, since it looks black/dark grey 80% of the time :-)
