installed a GT3 shift console. Install was easier then expected! Shifting is solid! Next up some spacers for dem lobsters!

I just got new custom wheels and no longer need my RSS 7mm front and 15mm rear spacers. I got them from Darin at FD Motorsports 6 months ago. They are the right kind (hubcentric) and worked and fit perfectly on my C4S with stock Turbo wheels. I am going to list them for sale but LMK if you want them. I paid $340 for the set. SIlver with black bolts (correct, safe lengths for front and rear). Save me from having to list them. I can send pics later today. LMK.

This a nice mod, gives it a modern look! Is the airbag and everything really just plug and play?

Would be hard to find for my sand beige maybe I should stick with black for my next 997

Default new Function First shift ****

Installed new Function First shift ****. Works well with the Numeric shifter, allows some micro throw adjustment based on how you install it. Went with Delrin material over aluminum based on comments about the aluminum getting super hot in summer sun.

Looks like it was supposed to be there IMO.

I like it. Been contemplating pairing one with my Numeric shifter as well.

Installed DasShield frunk protector which exposed the weak hood struts, so those got replaced as well.

Default cleaned my Turbo wheels

Got my new wheels installed so I cleaned my stock Turbo rims.
Not sure if I am going to keep them or sell them. Boxing them up for now.

Sprayed "anti-cat" on the hood and roof to keep the pest away (I now who you are Tinkerbell - be afraid... VERY AFRAID)

Pics please. There is so little color in the interior of my car, I should have gone red. I tried to look into altering the seats with fabric inserts but it was a bigger job than I wanted to deal with now.
