New to the Club!

Just purchased a 2002 5 speed over the Labor Day weekend! Been dreaming of owning one of these since they came out in 1997. It's clean with only 46,000 miles. As far as I can tell it's all stock. Got more sun in a weekend owning this car than I did in a week at an Orlando resort this summer (rained every day).

Can't wait to start putting some personal touches. But I'm not sure where to start. It's just so damn pretty as it is. I'm open to suggestions from the peanut gallery. I did look into updating/upgrading the sound system but I'm having a difficult time finding someone in my area that can/will do the work and sounds knowledgeable enough for me to let them touch it.

Another black box

I just picked this up about a month ago as a third car/fun car for the family. We've had about 600 miles of fun so far.Name:  WP_20160827_15_29_22_Pro_LI.jpg

Projector lenses with black headlight inserts. Totally changes the front end of a 986. It also has sealant over the whole car for the winter.

Those are sweet looking DRL:s, would be nice to know more.. Should we worry for any reduced airflow to the coolers?

Thanks for this. I'm getting my wheels painted/powdercoated like this by a wheel customization shop locally. Love the two tone.
