looks awesome, I'm planning on driving my car in many small trips in December as I'm taking the month off between jobs. I hope to also have some lowering springs and new BBS Center lock wheels on during that time.

I drove it. After a stressful day at work, I parked my DD and got in my 997.2 a drove for 45 minutes. Dropped major BP points...

New wiper blades...possibly the most boring thing I've gotten excited about in awhile.

Today I brought her home! A dream come true since I was very young. While my father has owned many models of 911, and I’ve been fortunate to get a good amount of seat time in each, today I become an owner. What a great feeling.

Nothing as beautiful as a C4S rear end. Good for you!

Went ahead and bought front shocks for my 2007 C2S. Did the rear a couple months ago. Did the drivers side today and will finish up tomorrow. Received my second Bosch payment for my Cayenne which paid for shocks

Can't wait to see this when you're done - I could be wrong but looks like 928 retro Pasha (sp?) pattern - so nice

That is cool, very retro Porsche. Might not be exact, but it is certainly reminiscent of the earlier interiors.
