Alright guys. Interior is finally coming together. But first a few additional changes to the exterior.

I had a full refresh of the front end completed. New clear bra and got rid of the head light washers

Also added new PS2's - 235/35/19 up front and 315/25/19 out back. I rolled the rear fenders and the fit is perfect. Not even a hint of rubbing and actually have a bit more room (if only i had wider rear wheels). Tires look pretty huge and the ride is much better.

Also had a corner balance and alignment.

As far as the interior goes, here is a list of the changes...

- RUF steering wheel with alcantara
- RUF shift ****
- Aluminum e-brake handle
- New Rennline pedals (old ones were getting worn)
- Rennline race mats (drivers side and passenger side)
- Rennline aluminum floorboard
- guage rings
- alcantara seat inserts
- full carbon fibre trim - guages, doors, dash, center console, something like 12 pieces in all.

She's getting there...

Cheers,
Kevin

You have a great eye for improving the already great 993 TT. What are you going to do when you're done modifying her? I don't think there's much left to do.

993tt >>> 996/7tt, IMO.

How did you delete the headlight washers?
