I gave up on the idea of RS door panels. I like the concept but changed my mind when I sat in the passenger seat. The factory door panel is very comfortable to hold on to during spirited driving and matches the style of the car better than anything I could make. I still plan on switching to 996 panel some day though.
This is the time of the year where we get to brag about the weather down here in Texas. It was in the upper 60's lower 70"s and perfect weather for painting. We had some rain last night that kept the dust down too. I saw the forecast a few days ago and got ready for today. It was a long time coming but it felt great to get these parts painted.
I was really nervous about the color not matching but the new paint is identical to the old in the shade. I still need to see both in direct sun light before I make a final judgment. In the pic they look a little different, but they're the same. I'm really happy how the roll bar turned out. I usually don't care about something so small as how a weld looks, but the factory welds looked sloppy to me. I'll be shocked if someone ever notices it. Heck, I'd probably walk past a boxster and not even notice if someone smoothed out the welds. I have a lot going on this weekend but I should be getting the interior back in soon'
