Added Carbon Fibre style Intakes for Intercoolers.
These particular ones are Fibre Glass with Carbon Fibre overlays.
Less expensive than total Carbon Fibre but still get the look.

They look great! From where did you purchase them?

If ever a wheel needed PCCB’s, it would be those bright white ones

What's the purpose of the trap under it? This will be the first time I am storing a car for the winter. Thanks!

Got the new door handle lever in that broke the same day as the radiator, lubed the turbo actuators. Took the car to work to shake it down prior to getting a sticker and cleaning it up to put away for the winter.

For those that your interior 997 door handle does not fully return. The retaining spring section of the handle latch has broken. Porsche has updated the design which requires the later cables to also be changed over. However something I have discovered is the retaining plastic part can be used on either side, so in my case if the passenger side one breaks, I can use the old broken drivers side on the passenger side without having to change the cable out.

Old vs new cable. New cable is the "T" style with plastic end.

Car is parked over an open floor to sewer drain and I don't want warm moist air condensing on the cool bottom of the car all winter. The tarp is lifted on one side to allow the air to vent outside the car's envelope and water from the other vehicles parked in the garage to get to the drain.

Wifey bought 3 so we could block off driveway access during cleaning and resealing of its aggregate top.
