replaced speakers with aftermarket units and added 6 speakers to rear shelf so now have 10 speakers along with adding a 996 cabrio factory amp and aftermarket DD stereo, of course I seldom turn it on.
Replaced muffler with an aftermarket unit.
Replaced springs with lowering units and Bilstein sport shocks along with replacing all suspension components.
added S center radiator along with a 996 bumper.
Replaced rear bumper and side vents with 03-04 units. Got rid of the bumperettes while I was at it.
Replaced wheels with factory 2 piece BBS 18inch units.


BTW love the personalized floor mats!!
The photo is very tiny, but it also looks like you have the double-hump rear deck of the Spyder. Did you do that too?

I'm very interested in getting the 3-spoke steering wheel, but boy does that seem expensive for a minimal cosmetic upgrade. Is there a deal on those anywhere?

I'd also love to do the 996 instrument cluster. That seems like it would be ridiculously expensive too, though I haven't searched that yet. Do you have a source? Or do you just try to find someone selling a used one? I don't like buying used parts because you never know what you're going to get.
