How much did it cost to put in the radar/laser jammers in the center console? Curious, looks like a cool mod

You have done a lot of upgrades.
Would you mind elaborating on them?

Had too much grey:


Added silver painted console, ashtray delete, Rennline phone mount, silver gauge surrounds:



Finally, a T96 wheel:






Probably will do some Rennline pedals and maybe black floor mats down the road. Also looking for a silver horseshoe.

Very nicely done. Huge improvement in my opinion, and a silver horseshoe should look awesome.

Paint it! I did mine and it looks fantastic! Search on my username and you'll find a detailed thread on the paint/procedures.

Also added seat heaters controlled by factory switches, Pioneer double din, hard wired passport, dash cam, compass mirror w/ homelink, rear seat delete with subs. Just some personal upgrades.

I love the interior. Where did you get it, how did you do it, how much was it? I've looked at getting the material and having it done, but I'm hoping for premade seat covers. This has always been my favorite Porsches interior and would look amazing with my fake Fuchs.

My daughter and I painted some of the horseshoe to match the factory painted center console. Still have a bit more to do. Trying to make it a little less grey inside.

Aluminum pedal covers are as far as I've gotten.

Where did you get yours? I cannot find the ones that say Porsche on them anywhere.

I think Porsche frowns upon aftermarket companies using their name on non-sanctioned products They do pop up every once in a while but I think Porsche squashes them pretty quickly. I got the ones that say Nurburgering on them... Not my first choice but they're fine. They fit well, were easy to install and feel great - the fact that I can't see them when I'm driving and very few people actually understand what they say are both pluses in my book Oh yeah, they were around $100 for the whole set including the dead pedal... That's a big plus!

The gray can look dreary for sure. It can be ok if pristine but it often is not. The carpet takes on a bit of a lavendar hue sometimes, just not good either. Replace, re-dye?
