My "face lifted" 987
 
I just installed SY center console and I thought I'd share some pictures of my "face lifted" 987. I'm very happy with the console, factory like quality + exact color match!

jinijazz . . . .

that is one sweet looking ride! How about some other body shots, also where did you have the console done? . . Looks like glass

Great Job!

:cheers:

Looks great! I love Speed Yellow. Who did the painting?

The selt belts look cool too! And the SY shift knob.

jinijazz 03-31-2007 08:15 AM

Thanks, guys.

The console was done by exotic-toys in FL.
Tony is a great person to deal with, offering core exchange too.
I wish he is in CA!

I am starting to like the Chrome Boxster badge.... I may have to get the
Chrome package for my deck lid.
Nice Job!

bmussatti 03-31-2007 08:27 AM

jinijazz, have you considered painting the side vents SY?

Like this?

http://www.pcars.us/albums/9170.jpg

I'm still debating on that. How do you like yours?

dcporsche99 03-31-2007 09:19 AM

Real nice Jinijazz! :cheers:

BTW, did you have your center console done by the guys on Ebay??

bmussatti 03-31-2007 09:20 AM

Jinijazz, I love the painted side vents! But, I like a more monochromatic look. Yours looks great either way.

Thanks dcporsche99,
Yep yep yep. ebay. I actually saw his work prior to my order, and talked to several people who ordered from him. He is one of the few ebay sellers who I highly recommend!

Sweet ride, boy does it look clean... I like the yellow color a lot, how hard is that color to keep clean?

looks great! I have to agree on the vents....with the roll bars, console, and lap belts you almost have to tie them in yellow, I had the same idea to paint my shifter CW but thought it might just get too dirty...

jinijazz 04-01-2007 09:58 AM

Hmmm looks like painted side vents is the way to go...
Anyone has close up picture? bmussatti?

edevlin, the shifter is leather, not painted.
I use Lexol cleaner & protector, so far so good.

super66, I thought you changed your wheels, no?

bmussatti 04-01-2007 10:04 AM

Here are some close ups. The work was done by Eric at Bumperplugs:

bmussatti 04-01-2007 10:05 AM

One more....:

jinijazz 04-01-2007 07:53 PM

bmussatti, they look much better than I expected.
And I just noticed your sig,

dangit jinijazz! Yeah, I did actually change them....this Saturday actually, I got the comlpimentary car wash and sure enough got rained on driving home, I couldn't catch a break with the weather to shine them up and take a nice new pic....now I hear we might get snow tomorrow!!! hi boss, can't drive the box today, its snowing, working from home....I can just hear how that will not go over well :D

btw....I just went with bumperplugs for my vents....in a couple weeks I'll be posting the painted guys for all to see....love that yellow....I'll be going SY for my 350 HP 2010 988 :cheers:

bmuss, was that clear plastic fender cover yellowish like that from the begining, or it got like that with time? Just remembered that the guy who installed my clear bra said clear covers were the toughest to keep un-noticable over white.
