looks the biz
Where did you get the carbon wing and mirror covers?
I've got the full GT2 kit on my beast, but would love those carbon bits to finish it off.

I have a carbon spoiler blade for sale for a 996 GT2 engine cover.

The pref owner of my car bought the wing but never got round to fitting it .
The mirror covers were a £70 ebay buy from a company in Taiwan, fit and quality is actually really good.

Some great looking cars.

My w reg 92000 mile turbo. Still drives like a dream. Going to order those carbon mirror covers and paint my seat backs too after seeing those pics.

I was toying with the idea of a half cage, always loved that on the GT3 CS, where did you get that done and how much was it? Did it require damaging intrior trim or does it bolt straight in to existing seatbelt mounts?

also the painted seats, i have hardback sports seats, but not painted, and love my painted centre console so was thinking of getting this done too, how much were they are who did them, have seen 9E can do these, but not got any response to queries regarding pricing....

Car looks great btw!

The rear cage is from the Porsche tequipment option range they come up forsale on ebay now and then for around 800/1000.it fits using the original seat belt anchor points. You need to trim a little bit of plastic behind the carpet at the side of the seat but it can't be seen once the carpet is back in.

I stripped the seats and took the rear shells to a local painter who painted them for £200, I then rebuilt them ,took about half an hour per seat to strip them and about an hour each to rebuild them making sure I didn't scratch the back.

I'd recommend you speak to Ben at Finish First 01403 741866, expert on painting Porsches & he does the painted hardback sports seats too and is a real perfectionist! He does the strip down and reassembly for you

Great looking cars, really think body colour seat backs make the interiors look much fresher.
