Hey folks - new member here. So today (well, yesterday actually) I gave mine a makeover. Painted brake calipers and a Dark Gray Satin wrap. What do you think? I'll be adding the wide spaced P-O-R-S-C-H-E lettering to the rear shortly.
Welcome, well done. Who did the wrap? How expensive was it? The red calipers look great. If you like the contrast maybe you can do the porsche in red , my car has it on the side. Your car looks great. This side scripts look cool to me. That’s my 99. It was like that when I bought it. I’m currently concentrating on the turbo, but when I get done with the turbo, I may repaint or wrap this one.
I’m a better exterminator then a mechanic, but I appreciate this forum and hope this. Rodent control begins with inspecting your garage for openings. If you can see daylight with the door closed seal the opening. 1/4 inch is all it takes. Make sure your garage door seals are intact. Some seals are made with stainless steel shards on the inside to deter their chewing to get in. Holes in the wall? Gaps on the sill plate? More permanent the patch, the longer it will hold up. Use spring traps, works right away. Bait some with peanut butter, soft sugar coated chewy candy works well. If they are nesting, tying a piece of fluffy yarn will attract as well. Bait stations take days, best for monitoring activity. Place every 8ft or so along the walls. Mice are wall huggers. Check your traps daily and reuse them. Once they have been used they are scented and will give better results.

Thanks for the tips. We've had mice and squirrel problems this year but not so much in the past and pest control has been out to set traps all along the house and in the attic. Haven't caught anything yet but the squirrels stopped chewing on the house at least. There is a bait trap right on the other side of the wall where the Porsche lives. Earlier in this thread I actually had posted a pic of one I caught in a bucket in the frunk. Then there was another which must have come out when I moved the car and he got himself run over. That was a few months ago but I noticed some fresh droppings today but there hadn't been any sign of activity for a few months after I got those two out. I am guessing a new resident moved in at some point. Its been very frustrating, the mice **** is annoying but easy enough to vac up but the **** smells and I have to keep extracting and bombing the interior.
Mice usually stay within 10 ft of their nesting site, think up and down an all around. If you got activity in the car, I would place snap traps on the floor mats, by the cabin filter and in the engine compartment and check daily. Look for openings in your eaves as well, they are good climbers and will sandwich themselves between the siding and gutters to go vertices and even in the hollow end blocks on siding.
