The name's Thatch, but not to worry! Yes, I love the bright colors, especially on the 993s like yours; they look like jelly beans! Have you seen the Orange 993 at Truspeed? Wow!

To me, the 993 body style, narrow or wide-body, will always be the icon. The 997, particularly from the rear and, to a slightly lesser degree, from the front, does nicely echo the 993 heritage.

Here's a few pics of my Blue Turquoise 997 alongside a 993 in the same color. Final shot is from my fuel filler lid,--see the "colour" code...

That last sticker is on a Norwegian car,--possible they put that on the wheel/tire placard on the edge of the driver's door. I appears they slip the color code in more than one area if they can.

For PCCBs get yourself two bolt hangers (dealership source) and then screw them in before you take off and remount the wheel. I fit them into the tool kit,--look for a hole from left to right to accommodate them inside the formed kit. PM for more details if that isn't apparent right away.

Thanks. Those pics are what sold the car for me. I didn't marry a virgin.
