Your build is amazing the night pic of your car is near my E30 M3 next to the white Benz
it’s in the process of being sold so I can invest $ in making my 11 Turbo S as hot as yours !,,

Absolutely blown away by this post. Looks like you are leaving no stone unturned to get this looking and running like an RS - I'm not asking for exact numbers but I have to ask, roughly what is your estimate to get all this work done?

Looks fantastic so far, makes my 2013 Turbo S look pedestrian

That thing looks great! WOW!

That slick top transformation is just .. perfect! I'm so in love. I dunno if I have the stones you have to do it, but the want is so high! It was worth it, came out amazing!

I added the 992 shifter and the 991 steering wheel. As you can see thru pics there is no cluster, that’s because I was in process of swapping the gauge faces when I broke the stepper motor for the oil pressure gauge upon removing the gauge needle!!!!! So I am in the process of getting a new stepper motor so I can install my new gauge faces… What I mess swapping the gauge faces turned out to be….

Well, I finally got the new stepper motor for the pressure gauge that I broke.. Here’s the final result of the custom gauges.
