Welcome to the board. Car looks great and sounds like a weapon on paper! Am sure it'll keep your attention for a long time.

Thanks. Was certainly my least favorite mod to do, but I like the finished product.

Lots of issues with re-assembling the NAV unit, and 10 year old brittle plastic parts and clips. The NAV ended up going up in smoke due to a loose resistor. So it was rebuilt. I had the HVAC buttons done by stickynomore and replaced the radio ***** with new Becker OEM.

Welcome to the group! Your pics do NOT do your cobalt blue any justice, it's such an amazing color in person. I would have killed to find a cobalt turbo when I was searching for mine.

I had a cobalt blue 996 C4S with the stone grey interior, such an amazing combo - great job landing this turbo! Be sure to post pics regularly.

Gorgeous car. Always a bit of a thrill to see one that's not black/white/silver/gray.

Thanks for all of the compliments everyone-sincerely appreciated.
