OK, the poser in me added another bling mod today. The main reason I put up these inexpensive mods on here is to give others ideas what are out there to personalize the cars.

I'm a nut for anything that says TURBO, so I didn't care for the crested wheel caps.........so they had to go.

Next up......more carbon fiber

Shark, I like them, who sells them, Porsche?

FVD catalogue shows several different variations, some use original flywheel,
and some use a ltwt flywheel, stay away from anything that has real quick
engagement (like a 996GT3 cup car), not fun to drive in traffic or start out
on hills.

Those are the OEM hub centers that come on the stock Turbo wheels - have 'em on my car.

If you're really ****, you'll rotate them so the valve stem is either 90 degrees to the word "turbo", or rotate them so the word "turbo" points at the valve stem.

If you are beyond ****, you can get no spin Porsche center caps:

Yes, they are beyond **** - they're firmly in "Bling" territory.

Thank God none of them say TURBO

I was going to get the crests, but liked the way the turbo looked when I picked up the car Friday, just in tme for the snow. Shark, I have the sma boxster red int. w/black cahange to black mats, what carbon fiber do I see in your int. that looks good w/ the red? Thanks, Boo

Shark

Boo,
I have the full CF pkg, consisting of:

Steering Wheel, vents, upper dash (wrapping around windsheild), Gauge panel (speedo, tach), front dash strips, front console & batwing, center console, shifter, e-brake, door pull and door panel storage cover, & front/rear speakers.

I have purchased a CF hazard bezel ($75 on Ebay). Am looking for a CF key surround, CD holder, and dash speaker cover. Will then look at exterior CF pieces.

I like the black mats, if I ever replace the carpeting, I'll do that in black.

I like the turbo center caps too....Im not a fan of the crests on the wheels...too colorful IMO

My Porsche crest for the wheels kept falling off, BIG TIME!!! Did anyone else have this problem? I got my Porsche dealership to switch it out ages ago to the TURBO Badge...

Shark

Unless the plastic tabs are broken, they should stay on OK.

Marty,
Bought these off ebay ($50)

tkerrmd

ok shark if you are a turbo nut how about can ya get it on the center gauge or is this a factory only option??

Shark

Good catch Tom,
I think these are std equipment on Turbo S alone. There was a Turbo S gauge panel on ebay last week for $500 but it is a Tiptronic.

I'm looking out for that as well....seeing TURBO every time you look at the tach must be pretty cool
