First off all your car looks amazing, not a cab guy myself but this is simply stunning.

Slightly off topic, do you have any stoneguards on your rear fenders?

Very cool cab!!!
btw, TechArt front splitter has same part#.
I've been thinking about the rear split grill... Nice color change there.

Q- what s your ride height? Looks perfect, not too low/high.

Yes same part number is correct
M033 OEM kit shocks and springs anything else is too aggressive for the cab and will mar the handling; coupes are another story and the brethren here have the 411 on that

Do a search on e-bay for:
RUF pedal and you will find the seller - his name is Karl in Corry Pennsylvania
He got me the strut brace and pedals

In addressing the rear spoiler grille I had to take into account that Porsche only supplies the split grille in primer and the stock one piece grille would require quite a bit of prep work so it made for an easier decision
If my car was a coupe I probably would get rid of the basket handle but on the cab with the tonneau in place it's cool

VERY nice. I love the contrasting front and rear grill.....works great with the wheels, calipers, top, and interior.

Thanks for the pics!

Try Carnewal in Europe - I'm sure he can get you the OEM sills with the proper script.

Thanks for that breakdown P. One more quick question, where did you find the bumper for $1000 shipped? Seems super low. My car only has 36k on it so I won't be penny pinching on parts either but I just got a set of BBS LMs and PSS coilovers so I'm well on my way down the slippery slope already. haha

There is another one on eBay now from seller: msroadrace in LA - call the owner Dave Buhain (phone # is in the listing) and ask him for a little discount
I got mine for $860 + shipping
It's advertised for 965 I think
Slippery slope indeed......

The Turbo Euro bumpers for the S models seem to be harder to find and more expensive
