I also have holes drilled in the floor so water cannot collect inside the floor pans. So far everything is staying dry. Before I reinstalled the windshield, the fuel gauge would stop working when it would get rained on. Immobilizer aside, these cars are pretty solid electrically. I've power washed the whole car inside and out. I wouldn't recommend cleaning the interior of your street car with a power washer. lol

That's good to know! I'm a huge fan of rhino lining the interior of off-road vehicles, but I'm going for a bit more a subtle look lol.
If you get on Amazon there are a ton of aftermarket hood and side scoops. They're primarily used by wannabe ricers but can function as a real scoop and they don't cost much. Instead of raising the trunk lid you could just cut a giant hole in it and mount a scoop over the hole. Kinda the poor man's version of your pic earlier. The aero images of our cars that I have seen show that to be a relatively low pressure area but I'm sure it can't hurt.
On a side note, when you flashed to 996 row, did your 986 guages still work appropriately? Whenever I get an hour off of daddy day care this is next on my list to do. I've read some say everything was fine, I've seen other say not so much. Reading wayne's article on cluster swaps it seems like after flashing to 996 I can go back through piwis and actually change the cluster back to 986 while keeping the 996 tune, but I haven't seen anyone actually detail doing this.
