It's is a royal pain in the behind to strip the interior - will do a detail post in couple weeks once I have the factory cage installed.

Liposuction ... 12 lbs off just from the front section carpet



Clean cut ...



good job buddy. i can't see the pics but it's probably good for me not to see it.

I would love to see the look on the face of the first CHIPS that pulls you over after you're done.

Cup car will be next once I can leave mooty and 996flt6 in the dust on the track ... will be a while. Yes, 996flt6 planted the seed in my head to strip my RS because I am tired of his his 6 GT3 being the only ugly car on the track.

Not planning on getting pull over by CHP but I will just say "Glad you pull me over, I was going to call 911 and report someone stole my interior".

PJS - just strip!

I rather my car be ugly and fast then pretty and slow : ). Have u figured a way to not get meatballed at ls with your sweet setup. Didn't work so well last time- lifting at sound station is for the birds- never pointed by so many cars- so frustrating. Mike

Gotta say that I would sooner do that than make my RS too hard core. I still enjoy driving it to the track at the moment... heck I am a softy. I even just recently installed a touch screen double din head unit to play songs from my Iphone in the darn car whilst I drive to the track. hahaha.
