My front end as well. Have had a couple vehicles "scuff" the front bumper in parking lots. The clear bra actually saved the paint. Definitely worth the investment. But maybe the OP likes ****** in the armor.

I randomly checked this bolt and it was loose (T-30 if I recall). Tightened it up and voila, no more loose seat.

I drove 500 miles to Morgantown WV and back to DC this week, drove to a wheel shop and back on Saturday near BWI, country drive in AA county Sunday....all total I did not see a single 911 on the road, besides me. In fact I never see them, now I only drive mostly for fun on weekends, but once again. Nothing. Back to thread, I'm getting my clutch lockout switched replaced this week, mine is getting a bit wonky.

I am in DC and see them often...

What did i do to my 997 today? I fixed six scratches i put in the back area with the garage door by mistake. It was my first time working on scratches and i was quite amazed at the result. Had to do a 3000grit wetsand super light and carefully, then compound by hand and polish by hand...voila, no more scratches and paint looks awesome! Paintwork is nerve wracking though, i must say.

I don't drive each day, so perhaps thats why I never see them out in DC. I mostly only drive on weekends for fun. I can take you guys on a long drive to Gettysburg and back loop, 210 miles up to the mountains and back. There is a Pa State road ....called....you guessed it, Rt 997 thats fun.
