I was curious because mine aren't sticky at all after almost 200K miles. But I do religiously keep it out of the sun. I remember the 993 ***** all turned to horrible goo in Florida. That was the least of my problems with 993

After numerous swatches, the closest color match to Luxor beige i could find is Adobe 6007.

You're not doing Alcantara?

If you can't get a perfect match, I'd be going black. You're not going to want two different beige colors in that cabin.

the adobe color is pretty close to existing headliner. The pillars are slightly different from headliner as those do not have foam backing.
Was thinking about doing black but that means, new visors, handles, coat hooks and then all the pillars need to black to bring it down to the doors, otherwise it will look much worse (my $0.02).

You're right, I didn't even think of all the ancillary pieces.

Default Eurowised it; 2” lift, roof rack, front baja bumper


Just got back from Sierra Tire putting Mickey Thompson Baja Boss shoes on my baby 265/65/18 AT

I put a two inch lift in which gave me space for bigger tires. I also put on a Eurowise Baja Front bumper and a Eurowise roof rack.

Yes that photo was yesterday. Our ski area is still open until May 27. We had half as much snow this year as we had last year when we were resort skiing on July 4th.

No pictures but flashed the TCU with the Malone/Tunezilla stage 1 'Autobahn' tune. The CD is now deleted and running Malone stage 2 ECU and stage 1 TCU tunes. Holy cow what a difference! The pull is incredible and the annoying pedal lag is nearly gone. Night and day!

Cleaned out the FR, FL, and RR drains that sit behind the wheel liners.

Found out the FR sunroof drain hole in the roof drains hot, soapy water perfectly, whereas the FL sunroof drain hole has zero flow. Bad.

Tomorrow, will lift driver’s carpet at the firewall to find bottom of drain tube as it goes into firewall. Hopefully that’s where the blockage is.

Washed it on a quick wash to get the dust and pollen off it.

The valve’s “lips” had stuck together on the FL drain tube at the firewall. No need to remove trim to access it, as it sits right on the upper left corner; just pull the carpet and insulation a bit. Opened it up with a long zip tie, dirty liquid came out, send down a liter of hot soapy water, all good.

The RL drain tube was as dry and clean as the RR. Too bad there is no way to test it.

Anyway, done with drains, as they all look fine now.

Scrapped off the old headliner remnants/adhesive. Good times!
