Picked car up from paint correction to remove any imperfections and then two coats of CeramicPro. Holy smokes does the car reflect light now.

Finally had the 7TT detailed and ceramic coated. Too bad it has to wait another 4 months to get back out onto the road.

I did this to my Black Turbo and it is money. No more waxing, no more swirls, no more micro scratches and paint always has that just waxed look. You will be happy with it.

The only down side is it won’t prevent water spots so watch out for rogue sprinklers!

I am doing the same to mine: paint on bumper covers, paint correction all over, ppf, ceramic coating. But I have been waiting FOREVER to get the car back. Had I known I would be without the car this long, I would have found a different vendor, but what're you gonna do once they've started? Can't wait to see the finished product. My black 997 had lots of swirls and some baked on ppf from vinyl applied on top. I would love to see some photos of black 997s with paint correction, ppf, ceramic coating, etc. Will post mine if I ever see my car again...

Default B16 shock aborbers

Hi,

Anybody here would like to comment on the B16 damptronic absorbers. I am thinking of replacing it either with a B6 or B16. The cost between both is quite a lot so I would like to hear some user experiences.

Thanks

LJT

I'm interested too.. but you should start a new thread in the main turbo forum... will get more traction there.

Not heard anything bad about the B16 except there often unavailable. Seem to be the standard upgrade for PASM cars with a DSC controller.
I went with the TPC Tractive coil overs.

Got a pathetic 53 in a 45 speeding ticket driving home from Denver International last night! Revenue enhancement kind of enforcement.

Refilled and bled the wing hydraulics. My issue was that one of the banjo bolts came loose and leaked fluid, so only one side went up.

PITA - - especially detaching the wing when one of the cylinders doesn't raise. In retrospect, I should have added more fluid while the wing was on the car - - I probably could have put enough fluid in that I could have made the cylinder extend most of the way...enough to easily get the wing off without fighting the spring.

Seems to be fixed again. Fingers crossed...
