Thanks for the kind words.

Probably can go lower by an inch or so. Much more and it'll scrape something fierce. It already scrapes some as is.

I'm going to drive the OEM shocks to the end of their natural life, then do the PSS9s and lower the car then.

Ah nice! Humm... I'm trying to figure out if I should dare mess with the electronics and change to whiter bulbs... I probably wont do HIDs but whiter bulbs...

Know of anyone who went with like PIAA bulbs to make the headlights whiter?

Eric,

The salesman gave me white side marker as part of the deal. He is a good guy.

Just noticed your avatar. When did you get your Cayman S? Please post some pics and details.

CP,

I also noticed his avatar too. I'm guessing that he finally got his Cayman S. Share details of your latest acquistion. Do you like it, what options do you have, etc.

Pong, did you change the exhaust tips on the Caymen? If so what are they? Thanks

Joe,

That is the chrome Sports Exhaust tip from Porsche. It is the only option I have on my car. It came that way and it's a complicated deal to change to OEM. It'll actually cost me more to switch it, so I took that. It's definitely growing on me.

The car came badge-deleted, and with the chrome exhaust, few can tell if it's a base or a Cayman S. Of course, the lower lip and caliper color (both black) give it away, but only to people who really know the car.

So far, my only mods are a sports short shifter and the Speedline wheels. I won't do anything else until 40k+ miles, then I'll do the PSS9s with sways.

I am very happy with the car thus far. Almost 13,500 miles in 11 months.

Thanks. I think the round tips look a lot better than stock.
