Refinished my door panel plastic trim surrounding the window switches using Testers flat black spray paint and Mother's Back to Black to give it a subtle sheen to make the OEM finish.

Installed a Pioneer AVIC-8000NEX with front and rear cameras, and a body color painted center console from Bumperplugs.com then got a complete two state polish and Gtechniq C1 + EXO v2 treatment from PCAutocare.com!

Yes, very satisfying. Beautifully detailed! Great taste and great job!

I did the same to my 2007 997 turbo and I lost all speakers and sound.
I must have broken my MOST loop somehow.

I bought another used amp off eBay and still no dice.

I put back the OEM PCM and no sound out of the speakers.
The PCM says amp, phone or GPS is not functioning properly.

Damn!

Seems like your fiber optic cable might have kinked or broken?

I love the Rennline floorboards. When they are installed, what do you do with the top part of carpet floormat? Does the floorboard sit on top of it, or do you remove the carper floormat altogether? Thanks

Thanks for the kind words. Just changed the oil today for the first time on the GTS. Added a magnetic drain plug. Fun times. Car drives strong.

Thanks. The top part of the carpet sits under the floorboard. The floorboard can be lifted slightly from the bottom to take out and refit the floormat or add a track mat for track days.
