996 C4S mods and local shop recommendations?
(Posted this in Pelican Parts and Rennlist as well)
Hello Forum -
I own a '04 C4S Silver, Black Int. Just purchased last year (some may remember as I posted then). Have enjoyed the car very much. Am looking now to add a couple fixins... 2 questions here.
1) Live in Bay Area (Peninsula, San Mateo County) and need a recommendation on quality shops in area. Looking to first do ECU/remapping then maybe a body addition (rear wing potentially). I've seen Sharkwerks at a couple of car shows locally. Please give me your recommendations. They will go farther in my book than seeing a company at a show.
2) any recommended mods?? Like i said, first will be ECU/remapping. Then maybe a rear wing, maybe.. here is what the car has so far:
Arctic Silver Exterior with Black Full Leather Interior
Recently Serviced @ 61,000 miles new spark plugs, belt, ect.
New 19" Rodrick wheels shown in pictures with new Hankook tires (245/35/19 Front - 295/35/19 Rear)
Litronic Head lights
Navigation with Multi Disc CD Changer
new porsche carbon fiber shifter ***
new aluminum door handles to match aluminum center console
painted yellow (all four) brake calipers
new front silver porsche emblem on hood
new clutch installed 10/09/13 along with recently upgraded IMS oil lubricating kit ($1,799)/ 10/09/13
brand new aluminium pedals
new porsche floor mats
Brand new GT2 front bumper with black mesh in air intakes
Push button exhaust option
Rennline strut tower braces front and Genuine Porsche Sun Guard Visor.
Thanks for any and all recommendations!

LED Bulbs for interior using SMD 5050 Chips and High Power LED (brightest on the market
Attention:
Produces bright light using SMD AGT 3-CHIP technology and High power LED. Not all LED are created equal. More LEDs does not mean more light. Make sure when buying LED you buy SMD LED with 3CHIP LEDs or 1W+ LED. They are much more bright than the older SMD LED and 3X as bright as regular 3mm or 5mm LED used in common cheap LED bulbs. Sellers fool customers into thinking more LED = MORE LIGHT. This is not true. The technology of the LED is the most important!

It is actually called Flintworks. But I second the recommendation.

Thanks for the replies, all. I will research the recommended shops. Next up is rear wing. Will start a separate thread..
for the internal LED lights, I went with ECS Tuning kit.

Look into " gt3 delete". It removes center console.
Short shift kit
Hawk break pads
Suspension redo if you track car.
Otherwise drive it. Over 5k rpm. It is really a different car then

Does anyone know how to remove the 996 c4s rear reflector between the tail lights without changing the entire deck lid. I was told to use the turbo deck lid but I found out it wouldn't quite fit
