Funny, it's such a small thing but it really does look much better now.

Just cleaned the garage floor with the power washer. Used the big "rotating nozzle" adapter I normally use for the wooden deck and it works great.

Installed a Porsche ssk, which replaced a B&M short shift kit. Here is an old **** used for testing with the console off. The Porsche unit has much smoother action and the throws feel similar (maybe shorter though others might feel different). 1st still balky on a downshift but all other shifts are fine and more of a positive click as gears engage. Actually there is less play than the B&M and it's working well with the yellow function first tranny inserts. Thought about a numeric but didn't like the side ball pivot design. Call me crazy on that one.

Installed Clear side marker lights. No need for pics. Everyone knows that they look better.

Which manufacturer did you buy from? I have considered them but there seem to be a number of choices.

Used Griots headlight restoration kit on the foglights, plus changed the bulb to white sylvanias. Kit works well, small amount of orange peel from the final spray. Reviews online says you need two kits due to the small amount of UV protectant they give you. Obviously had enough for the fog lights. Below are before restoration, after with different bulbs and last is final pic.

I purchased them from Suncoast. They arrived with official Porsche stickers on the boxes. Easy to install. I adjusted the spring several times to get a very snug fit.
