Thanks alot Ivan, talk about high quality pics. porsche could have had this as their official wallpaper LOL

Mine's artic silver, a very common colour in my area, very rarely do i see white ones, only see white 996 or 911s. white on the box surely looks great !

you planning to deamber the front or leaving it as it is?

I am from Hong Kong, so pretty close to you. In fact, in hong kong, you get alot of Yellows, silver, and black.

As for de-ambering, it came with the car so it saved me that step, just as the majority say here, it really makes your box look a few years newer.

Thanks, smith12895!

dbth, I'll post some close-ups of the vents this weekend. Bumperplugs did the work (great stuff from Eric) and the dealership did the swap for me prior to taking delivery. They only charged me $20 for the labor!!! I guess they do that kind of stuff when your are paying $68 large for the car!!!

did you drive your car in a porsche way prior to installing the front strut brace? if so, could you tell the difference pre and post installation? i ask, b/c i've actually started to wonder if some of the shimmy and "raft on the ocean" through a corner would be eliminated with strut braces (although that means i'm just covering up an undiscovered defect)

As you know , i have almost the same vehicle as you and am contemplating the intake vents and deambering.

Well here's a 3-month old picture of my old (Z4) and the new (04 986S) car!



p.s Z4 is sold and gone! Great car but nothing like the Porsche.

Sad that these are my best pictures of my car--haven't taken many at all.

Car's a bit dirty but with Seal Grey, you can't tell:





Nice parking lot, eh? Not much interesting to look at on the car other than maybe the euro-spec corner markers, the de-ambered turn signals, the clear bra (that you can't see from this angle) and the center channel tweeters in the rearview mirror, courtesy of Reus Systems

Eslai,
So tell us the real story...you were attending the Sylvan learning center, right? Don't be scared...we welcome people who are slower than others.
