One more thing, looks like you are missing the fog lights?
M030 coils and Bilstein HD. Solid spoke Turbo twist wheels.

The Turbo S ducts are on their way to Canada.....

Who needs A/C anyway.

Let me see what Motorsports is getting for them, now. Bear in mind that these slow down the alternator (at idle) so one needs to prod the throttle a little more often to keep the battery charged up.

Two thumbs up! The person doing the alignment easily rated a ten on that scale. This will be the place I go if/when my car needs the attention of an actual shop.

I think Neil will do a short write-up regarding his experience.

Bill,
The ones I took under the engine are a bit dark. I'll see if they are worth posting.

I thought RS/RSR's didn't have headlamp washers???

Beastly though! I love very "elemental" cars.

They don't. It looks like they just plugged on the factory holes.

Body color matched plugs would actually be a good option for those that want to remove the ugly washer nipples.

I wonder if BumperPlugs carries something that'll fit.

Clearly I need to sharpen my vision. I looked at Randy Leffingwell's book "Perfection by Design" last night and got the confirmation. I always thought they came without the holes there, I guess it's just us **** retentive, perfectionist, OCD types that plug/grind/paint them aftermarket.

I wonder if those washer plugs have an actual Porsche part number.

It probably does, but being a RSR part, it may cost $300 for the pair.
