Did you use the Girodisc shims?

Shameless plug- I are still alive and still have a M96 to build for my 01 C4. I have been busting my butt building a new website that will replace the original rennpart.com- you can check out our progress here at rennpartbrakes.com

Swapped the 997 shifter with the Rennline TR08 Short Shift kit back to the original shifter. Much happier with the original shifter. I also tried this Rennline kit in my 997 prior to swapping it into the 996 and didn’t care for it there either. Put the stock 997 GT3 shifter in the 997 and love it.

Sunny and 60s in the front range so I put the summer wheel set back on and took her to meetings in Denver. She always catches my eye for the last glance as I walk away.

Is partworks.de a legit website for purchasing and having items shipped to the USA? An item I am in need of is more affordable there than US part houses. Thank you.

I have to say that I usually don't like the gold wheels but they look superb with the interior color match and blue.

Dunno about them, but if you need a part quick from Europe, try rosepassion.com. they ship DHL to the USA and man is it fast.

Thanks. Rose Passion price is higher. I did eventually find some good reviews of PartWorks.de on here and other P car forums. The checkout process is kind of odd how they only take bank transfer or Paypal though...

I've had a lot of problems using credit cards for overseas purchases. Paypal doesn't charge any additional fees so it's a very sweet way to go if you ask me. Just put a CC in your Paypal account and, presto.

The fees are hidden in the exchange rate. If you look closely at the amount they are charging versus the vendors foreign currency amount, there is about a 1% fee. It was $30 on what I was going to order. Not a huge deal though.
