Good points! It looks really close in the picture.....and all of the sparks were going the other direction (away from the car). I didn’t see any issues on the rear and I’ll take any excuse to get a new bumper or ducktail 🤣 That is my buddy in the photo, I would of worn safety goggles 😉

yeah....it’s not a perfect fit on the dead pedal....it was going to be a little off somewhere but decided to keep the right edge clean and on same line as stock. I’ll live with it for the price (for now)..

Not sure what the ebay pedals cost. Other good alternatives I have personal experience with are Rennline (dead pedal with crest in the Cayenne) and SRP Racing in the 928.

Yeah, I like them. Fitment on that dead pedal is actually a lot better in person. The feel is pretty good. 7.8/10 haha

Replaced the OEM battery. It's been on its way out despite being on the OEM charger. We've had miserable weather the past 10 days or so until yesterday when I jumped in it and couldn't turn it over. Except for standing in the frunk, it was the most painless repair I can remember. Took me more time to find the 13mm wrench to take the battery cleat out than anything else.

I couldn’t find a key cover in midnight blue, so I attempted it myself. Came out pretty good!

added the plastic piece to block the resonator to the intake. 2008 c4s and the car screams at 5k RPM. I was a little hesitant of this mod but it gave me a little preview of what the car would sound like with a CAI. Free mod so why not. Definitely anxious about getting a CAI intake now.

Where did you source the plastic piece to block the resonator?

And you’re just fitting it under the stock tube arm?

And can you elaborate on the part type, plug style, size?

thanks!
