Was the headlight washer delete part of the lightweight headlight option? Not sure if I’ve ever seen this before but I did notice the parts list has a distinction between the headlight washer and non-washer bumper
Yes that was part of the lightweight headlight option along with the halogen lights instead of bi-xenon. This option saved 13.2 pounds.

That's point Mugu and that's the Point Mugu rock. Be careful of your speed up there as there is a campaign going on to slow down the traffic after those Pepperdine students were killed. You can see that memorial they made at the Colony with all those white tires representing everyone killed by cars.

PCH with operation safe canyon is definitely a reason to stay at the speed limit or under, especially with sports cars. Its gotten really bad even in the canyons, we've seen them deep into mulholland, decker, piuma. Luckily they don't seem to come out at the early hours that we go out. Our drives are spirited, but safe for all on the road.

Was one of my absolute fav mods I did on my last 997.1GT3 The 991.2 GT3 wheel is 360mm OEM 997 wheel 375-380 depending which. Then a momo typically 350mm so it feels much smaller and looks way better.

Looks fantastic. Currently waiting on a rewrap by Exclusive Option on one I sourced from marketplace, will look pretty much identical to yours with red stitching and a red stripe. Out of curiosity, do you know if yours was an OEM job or a rewrap?
