Yup- I have the hollow spoke versions. I also have chrome 993 WB hollow spokes- one is bent, so I have the 996 hollows on the car and will be refurbing the 993's this winter. I want to straighten, strip and refinish - no chrome- it's an expensive process, but these wheels are worth a small fortune now.

I got new floor mats for my new to me cab since the drivers side mats kept creeping up and getting in the way of my feet when driving.

Looks great, perfect match and much better for morale

Christmas early today. OEM RS rear swaybar going on today. If you're looking for these sway bars, Sonnen had the best price. 389. Rennline sells the exact same OEM bar for 625. Highway robbery.

New oatmeal square weave full carpet kit from Lakewell in Belgium finally arrived. Took 2 months to ship here. That'll be the winter project. Full interior rebuild. Should be getting the leather bits from Classic 9 here soon. Eventually all the classic grey will be gone and it'll be tan/cork interior. Making my arena red more peanut butter and jelly....

congratulations. You’ll have fun ripping out the old classic gray now turned purple interior. What your door panels do you have? Do you have the 97 ones with the continuous strip that flows into the dash? Or do you have the 96 ones without the strip?

I'm already running RS door panels. Mine is a 96. Trying to decide if I leave them black or do them in cork basketweave from spinneybeck. I'll have to look at it when I get the carpet done. Maybe I'll put together a thread on the build and ask the Rennlist collective...

New front speakers to replace the blown OEM Nokia



Use dremel to remove the outer ring from the OEM Nokia

Mount the speakers using OEM holes and the OEM grill snaps to the outer ring.

Rockford Fosgate behind the OEM grill

Guess I’m surprised it made it that far. 2018 production date, Kumho Ecsta PA1, installed by previous owner. Looking at Continentals to replace, guess I might as well do both rears at the same time.

Yesterday, a guy in a black Acura small SUV ran into me at a stoplight in the rear and pushed me about a car length forward…my car was in neutral at stop…..as I always shift it there at stop with light brake to hold…thankfully…

Could not believe those little black bumpers took the hit perfectly square - no marks or damage externally or internally - to engine or suspension….lucky it was that particular Acura car…his bumper slightly crushed in 2 places from my bumperettes….

It was a good day yesterday for me…
