If I remember correctly . . .
First addition was winter wheels and tires.
Clear side markers (RL approved!)
Hardwired V1
Rennline black aluminum pedals.
PSS10s
Summer wheels and tires.
Fabspeed mufflers.
On a related note, fixed up the garage to make it Porsche-worthy!
One of the bigger changes along the way was just getting a random orbital polisher, good polish and some good wax.

1. Clear side markers
2. "almost" hardwired v1... in progress
3. iPod adapter from CDR220 aux out
4. Bumper plugs
5. To be determined....

Well when I get it...(hopefully in November)
New mats
And then I will prioritize based on what I see. Mostly cosmetic stuff to start I think.
Maybe something for my wheel fetish

i recall when i took delivery of the 996 back in 4/2000 i drove across the street to the gas station next to the dealer and had them put on my 19" speedline rg5 3 pieces. This was right after the salesman gave me the keys, and he was shocked to see it already in the shop. I then went to the muffler shop and had the fabspeed headers and mufflers installed. The next weekend the H&R coilovers and sway bars. following month the TRG piggyback, and i stopped keeping track of the changes since then
