Have had my 2010 997.2 Carrera S for 3 weeks. Was time for a complete brake job. Front Zimmermann rotors, front Hawk ceramic pads, rear Hawk ceramic pads (rear rotors were excellent). All new Porsche hardware. Had to stop the OEM pad dust!!

Jonathan, what template did you use & what did you use to cut it out? I really don't want to take off the front bumper, even though I've seen it's pretty straight forward, it's my laziness kicking in. Thanks Nick. BTW

H&R springs and IDP plenum... that should about complete the mods to this car. Now I just need to get spacers... badly!

That actually looks really nice with the center refinished in black. Those are my favorite wheels beside Fuchs / Sport Classics.

Your car will look sick. Post pics as soon as they are installed. Can't wait to see the rims on the car.

I made it myself out of cardboard and use a dremel to cut it out.
