Hey guys, new here. I wanted to share pictures of my Daily driver 99 996c2 on a drastic weight loss program! So far I have completely gutted the frunk including stereo amp, from the front seats back is completely gutted, sunroof, headliner and all components have been removed, center console, radio and storage all removed, door and dash speakers removed, muffler delete, and automatic rear spoiler removed...next up are new seats and steering wheel!! Hope you all enjoy

Nice!
Is there a carbon fiber sunroof replacement available?
i just came from the BMW world and there are some E9x carbon fiber panels that can be bolted into place of the sunroof.
They also fit(fit-ish that is) the E82.
Just wondering if anything like that is available for the 996.

I'm curious about how much weight you've lost. Do you have an estimate?
Nice ride btw.
