I’ve been away from home for a while. Finally back and finished a few 993 projects, Got new tires and took the car for a quick spin yesterday. Very happy with the feel and performance of this 28-year-old antique lol. Today I dropped it off at Ceramic Pro for PPF, Ceramic Coating and “clear” window tint. Once I get it back I will finally be able to thoroughly enjoy it.

I was shocked at how tight and powerful the car felt. 140k miles and still rock solid. I wasn’t sure about the wheels until I saw them in person. Beautifully subtle in Dolphin Gray against the warm Maritime Blue paint. Just spectacular. Bravo my friend.
Nick, I’ll be driving it up to Monterey for Car Week in August. Just got this from Ceramic Pro San Diego…
Well, I haven't been to the Monterey car week since 2019... TBH it just became a bit boring after attending for several years straight and seeing mostly the same cars race @ Laguna Seca (my favorite aspect of car week - followed by werks / legends). Of course there were new things to see but the vrbo costs for a decent house and other general hassles associated with the crowds on the peninsula have kept me away.
I understand that it's much changed since 2020, so perhaps I should check out the details.
Hard to leave MI in the summer these days.... But Maritime Blue in the NorCal sun could be a must see!

I haven’t been to Monterey since 1990…coincidentally with Marlboro, and Team Penske. That’s a story for another day. West coast gatherings are on my retirement “to-do” list…maybe not this August though.
Monterey Car Week has become a slog tbh .. I can stand about two days of the traffic and crowds, and my saturation point is pegged. If I didn't have a free bed and didn't live within driving distance .. but I am old and cranky so ...

Nicely done Ilko! Getting this one prepped a lot quicker than the red RS for sure. What's the latest thinking on the amount of time to have the paint cure before PPF?
