Washed it. Detailed the wheels.

Spent 4 hrs fvcking with my Blackview dash cam firmware via my phone beacause pink sky and no nice lady talking to me.
Though I had bricked it twice.
Took it apart (cuz thats what you do when you think its ruined) and found a screw that didnt belong in there.
Hard formatted the sd card with my laptop and loaded the new firmware from their website and Viola - works like new.

Played around with the ECS Tuning Wheel Spacer Fitment Kit for a few hours. Carrera Classics on 997.1 C2S. Bilstein B6, stock springs. It’s odd but I feel like 10mm up front and 10mm again in the rear are giving me the “flush-ness” I want. Pics really highlight the wheels gap though!

I don’t understand why anyone would cover that beautiful Carmona Red with a silver wrap, if that is Carmona Red.

Took the lower dash on the drivers side apart to replace the ignition lock switch on the clutch pedal. Car starts so much better now, and I fished my PCCM+ phone mic cable in a more secure way. Giant pain in the *** to replace that switch, but feels good for it to be done.

What do you think of the Bilstein B6’s? Did they raise your ride height?
