Thanks for looking

I'd like a set too, but unfortunately it seems that the originator of this thread and maker of the caps has not logged into this site since last October. Highly unlikely he'll see anyone on here asking for more anytime soon. Perhaps someone knows him outside the forum and can reach out to see if he's willing to make more as a business sort of venture? I'm thinking that's probably the only way anyone will reach him.

Thanks Doug. I appreciate the feedback. I am doing several things to my car and I was impressed with the center caps. Too bad he may not make any more. I guess I missed my opportunity. Thanks again.... David

Nine8Six (Fred) did a number of really cool things that he made available to us, but he had some personal matters to attend to and stopped participating. He resurfaced a few months ago but has gone quiet again. Some things I recall that he offered us were bi-xenon projector headlight kits, 2 different versions of the wheel center caps and a wind deflector that had a Porsche logo that lit up. He was last working on a dash mounted custom computer tablet that would install in the dash instead of a double din radio. Hopefully he will return one day!

For now the only way to get a set of the wheel center caps is if someone here offers a set for sale.

Fred

Fred is a genius and an artist. I have the illuminated windscreen with the Porsche crest and it’s beautiful. I missed out on the wheel crests but hope all is well with Fred.

Hoping he comes back to the forum and joins the fun. Would love to have a set of the wheel crests and would love to see what Fred comes up with next. He’s definately missed.

Same here, I have the second generation of his wheel caps and the projector headlights. The flat screen computer in place of the radio he was last working on really looked awesome although it was probably a bridge too far for me! Hope you are well Fred!

I really want the projector headlights... They looked awesome. Just got my boxster and what Fred did back in the day was "epic". Wish he was still here and hope he comes back one day. If anyone has some projector headlights they want to sell let me know.

Wanted: Set of Fred's Center Caps...

Hi Guys...and Ladies!

I know it may be a long shot, But I am interested in locating and commandeering a set of Fred's Center Lock style Caps for my 981. Red or Blue would be lovely!

Although I am new "officially" to the site, I have really appreciated all the useful information the forum over the years while relishing my time with my former 986 and despite moving into my 981, I love being a part of this forum!

Thanks so much!

A long shot, but did want to ask if anyone has a set of 4 that they are looking to sell. Would like them to be in top notch condition though. Please PM me. Many thanks.
