Thanks everyone! I feel like I'm playing catch-up with everyone else in regards to mods. I guess I can pause for awhile to catch my breathe now that I've done my first major one.
Patrick, I'm always in your rear view mirror because I never know where I'm going and have to follow. It has nothing to do with the fact I might be a slow driver.

I'm assuming you're referring to Adrienne since I didn't have an avatar before.

C.J., I'll never be in your league. If I'm tiptoeing into the dark side, you must be in a black hole. It took me over a year and a half of owning my car to have my suspension mod done. It took you - what - a week and a half?

Thanks Adrienne and Mark. I just wasn't sure how many more suspension before and after pictures this board was willing to endure. That was why I threw in a new wheels picture, too.

Wow Dan! I love it. Thanks for the ride description. It'll help you avoid the deer again next time your in Arkansas. Hoping to do mine before June.
What's next?

I'm almost certain he's referring to Adrienne's "calendar" shot. "This place could really use a woman's touch," and that yellow eyesore is starting to Bug me...

BTW- I'll have similar photos up soon. I'm already lowered and my MY02s just showed up today. Still looking for colored center caps.

In case you didn't notice, my "new wheels" picture didn't have center caps because I was waiting for a set from ebay. Sometimes there are deals and sometimes not. I know someone got a new OEM set for $119 + shipping because no one bid against him. There are also decent used OEM sets and after-market ones for a lot less. Or a RLister might have an extra set cheap.

Travis, I'm thinking smaller, thicker steering wheel or RSR mufflers - maybe clear front side lights. I really have a very modest list of mods I want before I'm done. Maybe a DE for the driver since I still have my old wheels and tires.

Dan, I have some center caps for you. Simple ones with the black Porsche logo. They are all yours, you just have to meet me somewhere to get them - and I have to find them!
