Why would you think that? If I were a purist, this isn't the Porsche I'd have bought.

It was quite a fight getting the water drains fixed. Well, the drivers side one was fairly easy as you can reach it from the bottom and put it roughly in place. The passenger side was a sincere struggle. Ended up folding up the grommet part with a screw driver through the middle (to keep the plastic hose / pipe aligned). With the grommet in place I used a set of pliers to pull the hose / pipe up, groove by groove. All in now.

Wheel liners are in and the bumper cover is on. Much better than before.

I did spot an issue with the side markers though. When I push them in they sit too low and have a hard time to click in place. It looks like there is a ridge in the plastic part attached to the car which prevents the correct location. As the car orignally would have had amber side markers and clear ones are now in, could this be a difference between those markers?

Also got a first chance to roughly check the front camber adjustment range. Bit hard to judge as the phone level changes a bit depending on the position you hold it in (as in upside down, front to back etc.). Worst numbers on both side (least negative camber) give -0.3deg to -0.9deg. Quite equal on both sides. I set it to full negative for now.
