Congrats on the car. Great pics and a very nice stable. Weather in Texas this time of year much better than the Northeast. From the sounds of your post looks like your getting ready to track the baby. You will love it.

Cheers

Very nice! Welcome aboard.

CF seats? Are those replicas? If so, I definitely not track the car with them

Can you tell us more about those seats and the splitter? I just bought an '04 in the same colour. Congrats!

I was lucky, bought the seats second hand from another PCA member, seats are MaxSpeed and Harness bar is GMG.
GT3 Cup splitter from FVD, part No 996 505 986 91 or new No 996 505 986 92

Clips for splitter purchased from Porsche dealer, part No 999.507.497.40

I'd be no less concerned in those than I would any other non-fia approved aftermarket seat.

God these look so good in silver. I've never wanted a silver car in my life up until now. Definitely the best colour.
