Dell,
Would you like me to repost the pics of Tom's carbon fiber roof and hood from his 996Turbo ?
I mean, since "I'm not going to mod my car", then what could possibly be the harm ?

Dead fall is right. Thankfully I have baby seats in the back so I can't install a rollbar and harnesses. Wheh!

Must have had a change of heart.

From a previous post of yours about the Turbo...

In my Turbo, I want seat heaters and supple leather, etc,
Anyway...nice seats. As you may remember, I too like a harder edged Turbo...

dell i vaguley remember you posting that your wife was the primary bread winner .... doesn't she have an issue with all the packages that keep showing up at your door? im digging all your mods for sure. buddy is right -- exhaust and flash next plus or minus some new alpha 28s and then you'll need a new clutch plate and disc and on and on of course. hmmmm what about countermeasures like hardwired V1 or Li?

SHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Don't tell her that. As long as the number of packages that show up for her equal the number of packages that show up for me (that she can see ) everything is cool
