Peeled off the Porsche decals - they were ok, but they had to go!
Swapped out the summer wheels for my winter 19s
Installed Zunsport side vent grills

Set up the satellite radio (still not working)
Installed MillWorks USA front plate holder
Made sure my golf clubs fit in the hatch (they do)
Installed driver's side TrackSpec seat angle brackets. Had to pull the seat out for this. Tried doing it in situ, but I couldn't make it happen. . Passenger side some other time.
Now I'm just crossing my fingers that I have all the proper paperwork for my DMV appointment on Thursday to title and register the little monster. I can't wait to DRIVE IT!
Installed our full Performance lineup on a GT4 this week, Sound and power gains are phenomenal.

Check out our newest video to hear it for yourself.
I installed a Joyeauto Apple CarPlay and aspherical mirrors.
The previous owner had a backup camera installed with a different interface. I removed the old interface and plugged the camera RCA into the Joyeauto interface and it worked perfectly!
Regular (flat) mirror Aspherical mirror. No more blind spot!
Aspherical mirrors are how mirrors should be. These are what they install on cars in rest of world. They greatly reduce the blind spot. Looks much better than those stick on convex mirrors.
It’s the first “mod” I do on all my cars. See below for part numbers. I ordered them from Suncoast Porsche. They were about $175 per side.
super easy to change. Takes 10 sec. adjust mirror so it is in it’s most “in” position, then put your fingers behind the outer edge of the mirror glass and pull it out. There are two wires to unplug for the heated mirror, just plug these wires into the new mirror and press the new mirror into place. You are good to go.

I ran OEM split mirrors on my E46. Similar concept and worked great. I think these look like a nice find.
There is a technique to setting up your mirrors that completely eliminates blind spots. Once I adjusted my mirrors for this, no accessories or mirror mods needed.
spyderdoc How was the install for the Joyeauto Apple CarPlay? Are you happy with the functionality? I also have the base CDR (non-Nav) and the choices for aftermarket Apple CarPlay are limited. I think you are only the second person I have seen retrofit CarPlay onto the base CDR 3.1. Kudo's to you and any additional info you might have on what you did would be a great asset for many of us in the community since info is somewhat scarce.

Thank you! It wasn’t so bad at all. You can have the head unit out in 5 min. The JoyeAuto is easy to install, but I ran into a few roadblocks, mostly due to such a tight space. I found a great solution to space problem. I will post a write up this weekend.

Yup I used to run these on my E46 M3. Was curious which ones you got b/c suncoast has the dimming ones etc listed for like $450+ a side....
Would love to see how you did it. Did you just getting it directly from their website?
