Those look nice. How long did it take to get the bumperettes back? Do you have to send in the original bumperettes? How much?

Thank You

My car is arctic silver as well, and they sure look nice on yours. It's probably the lighting or the angle in the pic, but the bumperettes somehow look darker than the rest of the car.

I feel like the only idiot in class, as I'm not getting the "MILF" part of your plate. Anyone kind enough to enlighten me?

It's the lighting/photo.

Here's a pic of the rear bumperettes done by Eric on my Polar Silver 968 Cab:
https://rennlist.com/forums/attachme...chmentid=93404
He also did the rear bumperettes (and the non smoker's kit, painted Lapis Blue to match the OEM painted console) on my Lapis Blue 996TT:
http://www.bumperplugs.com/links.html (that's my car at the top).
He also supplied me a plug to plug the hole in the roof of my Guards Red Carrera Cup car (where the Supercup series antenna went)

Eric's paint match is spot on perfect , trust me.

Whoa...thanks, Joe.

So would that make "DILF" the "brokeback" equivalent?
