Finally some pictures
I still have some more to do, such as remove and clean wheels and wheel wells and re-paint the calipers and add ss brake lines. Im waiting on a painted center console and will be replacing the shifter handbrake. Other than that i may be removing the window tint.

I love the turbo mats. I washed and polished the car with 4 different pc pads from cutting to polishing. Now i need to apply klasse. I use 1z green and red paint polishes. The interior was treated with lexol cleaner and conditioner,vinylex, and carpet wash in certain spots.
I replaced
Windshield wipers
Ignition rosette
Fuel hinge
Trunk lock cowl
All hood/engine lid shocks
Wiper bolts
Will be replacing rear window exterior gasket
Center console
Ebrake
Shifter
997 shifter

Looks great, especially the interior. I'd call it 'Brutus'!

Excellent! Nothing like making a car look better than when it rolled out of the factory. Thanks for mentioning the products you used during your restoration.

Nice Turbo. Love the color combo.
You removing the tint because it's in bad shape or you just don't like it? Here in Phoenix I consider window tint a must have.

The tint looks fine just around the edges as porsche windows have the little dots. The tint actually saved the interior as this was an Arizona car for part of its life. The tint just makes the interior too dark. I may only remove the front two windows, but may leave it. I'm going to live with it for a little while to see.

This will be in my car soon. I was just informed it was completed. I have always wanted a painted center console.

That looks incredible! Looking forward to seeing the console installed. That is what I want in mine. I figure at some point, my front bumper will need a respray so I will do the console at the same time.

I love how the new shifter feels and looks great with the hand brake.
