My tail light lens was a bit tired looking, particularly the reverse light windows had many micro cracks. So I found a mint OEM lens on eBay and installed it today.

Nice improvement. I did the same thing about 4 years ago. The backup light lens had a discoloration that I couldn't resolve, so replaced the unit.

Installed fabspeed X pipe with 200 cell cats. Flushed brake fluid with Motul Dot4. Replace LHS valve cover gaskets. I think I'm done for at least 2-3 yrs.

What mufflers are you running with the sport cats? I am debating to go straight pipe with my Fister IIIs.

Sunday morning drive.
Some sun, some cloud, some rain.
And definitely some grins!

Going in for Correction and Ceramic coating today- Paint is in great shape, but want to keep it that way! Will post pics of results in a coupe of days when I get the car back.

I replaced my windshield wipers with Duralast from Autozone. I was using Bosch but they stuck out too much and would flop at highway speed. Autozone carries many sizes, 13, 14, 15, 16 and on. Their actual size is what's indicated on the package.
I used 14 and 15. I could have used 14 and 16.
They fit better with more arms(?). IMO, they look more like the original Porsche blades with more arms and "curved" arms at the ends.
I am going back and getting some more just in case they stop carrying this type of blades in the future.

The battery ground strap looked a little sad and weathered.




I took a bit of scotch brite and WD-40 to it, before submerging it in a vinegar-salt solution and then neutralizing it with baking soda. Like new'ish.

Picked up the mat I had made for my rsd. Going to add snaps on the corners to keep it down at speed when the top is down. Ready for the summer

The rsd is very nice as well as the red interior.
