Not done yet still have have some black alacantra with red stitch to be installed for the seat cushions, shift boot, SC and roof light console. As well as a little CF
and lastly techart black alacantra steering wheel with red stitch on order.

Man the stock seats are heavy! I tried lifting one and Im guessing around 90 pounds each? So far without mufflers and stock seats I figure I'm saving quite a bit of weight and can feel it in the car too. The buckets take some time to get used to but now I can catapult though corners truly awesome!

Looking terrific, I love the red decorative trim around the shift boot. I have high expectations for your Turbo

Thanks Mean Machine I will try not to dissapoint! Wow Kuwait so far pretty cool we're talking about our cars and we're from all over the globe.

Yah well I was thinking of replacing the leather from the seats completely with black alacantra and red stitching but decided against it because I think in a year or so I will just replace the seats with carrera GT seats or somthign to that effect so for now I just put those in and will replace the cushions with alacantra. I'm happy with this set-up anyways so its all good.

I'm also interested in putting in some performance modz maybe in 6 monthes or so like GIAC chip, Plenum and some headers. Anyone have any idea how much HP I would be looking at? (with fabspeed muffler by pass)

Next mod: 997 GT2 wing and I think I'm good for a while...hopefully. Wheels coming somtime end of this week can't wait.

Good luck, on the modifications its going to be a great car indeed. I'll make sure to check it out from time to time to see how you progress with the exterior/interior enhancements and performance modifications.

Can't wait to see the rest! Is the GT3 nose insert a factory part or is it the Techart part?

factory costed 30 dollars for the insert!

Might change it down the road but I actually kinda like the plastic look to it, not sure if it worth it to switch.

Man Cant decide which Wing to go with if at all...?

Yah the Ruf is a wicked wing subtle and tasteful and the techart is really nice too.

But if I go techart I'm going to want to go with the whole bodykit as well. And the Ruf well I have never thought the Ruf but isnt it really expensive? I'm doing my best to give myself a budget but it isnt relly working...
