How is it going with the front spoiler lip? Supposedly the aerokit reduces front end clearance. Any scrapes yet? Any tips to avoid them? My front lip is painted and while I dont have the aerokit I am concerned.

I agree with you eagleeye, its a great combo, I will post pics ASAP. regarding the front spoiler lip its low I agree but when I take a ramp I take it with an angle i.e. diagonally and i managed to have zero scrapes also what might help as I tried that in my 997.1 tt is to use 3M clear film on it.
Pics of interior are to follow.

Gelkad,

What are those "Carrera" emblems stuck to your doors?

Great looking car! Are you the second owner - can't believe the first owner put the "Carerra" emblems on the doors. You probably can remove just as folks remove the rear emblems - little bit of heat from a hair dryer, dental floss, Goo Gone.

I've never seen them before. Dental floss should get them off.

Gelkad, that is a stunning car. Great color choice. One of the nicest TTS I've ever seen.

Agree with taking the markers off the doors.

That looks fantastic! Love the white slats up front.
Any chance you could snap some interior pics. I'm very interested in how the white deviated stitching looks.

Keep the shiny side up!
