New 996 owner, restoring & developing fixes

Hello, I recently came across a mechanically-sound, cosmetically-rough C2 for cheap, so I sprang for it and started cleaning it up:



It's slowly taking shape after a few rounds of catching up on deferred maintenance - injectors cleaned, the Merc Tiptronic flushed twice, engine oil flushed and swapped to DT40, new tires, new plastics, and a proper performance alignment - and I'm starting to see a lot of potential areas the car could be improved past factory.



I am a product designer by nature/occupation so I'm curious what other 996 owners have in mind for what they want to improve! I'm already thinking to make flush bumperettes (why can't I find these already?), redo the horseshoe and center console stack to flow coherently, and make the shifter trim slightly more angular to match the curves of the horseshoe. And replace the factory cupholders. My goodness.

Let me know!
