My custom webcrawler alarmed on keyword "Bling" and texted me this website address

Your attention to details is phenomenal. You should go work at Pagani Automobili. Similar style... mixed between tactical aircraft and retro curves and tones.

EYE CANDY, AWESOME!!
Form follows looks, forget about the function!
They even recycle old MDA/PDA mobile phones, now that is fantastic.
On my way to the PAGANI dealership right now.

Fred, are you working on the shift lights already?

Absolutely. Consider it done, Bran.

Now you owe me 0.3hrs of work (at my rate US$8.99). Manufacturing is a bit rough though as the kit comes in a one piece + pcb + BT transceiver + 15 smd led (color: amber/red only TUV approved). Total US$28.99 + shipping.

Thank you!
Nice8Six Factories

PS: you can report me if you need this deleted (Subscribed btw, cool thread Bran)

What's wrong with the TPs? Have you tried on a laptop to see if you can catch the BT signal?

Can you see those listed inside Device Manager > Ports (COM and LPT)?

Would be nice cuz you could then connect to them and diagnose from there (calibrate also I'm sure, adj resolution, stuff like that).

For serial... I like PuTTY but there are tons of others. Remember HyperTerminal? loll

Did you apply a chrome finish to the headlight frames or did they come that way? They compliment your ride nicely!

Thanks guys!

The light bezels were available in two versions, black and chrome finish.
Barely available anymore, if at all.
I modded/trimmed them to suit my taste.

I got an invitation for a Porsche Leipzig Pilot Program:

The Porsche Leipzig Pilot offer combines two dreams of many sports car fans: a first-hand look at how a Porsche is constructed. And then the opportunity to take the wheel yourself. Whether Cayenne, Macan, 718 Boxster, 718 Cayman, 911 or Panamera choose your favourite and then discover the natural habitat of every Porsche: the track. After detailed instruction we begin by introducing you to our on-road circuit. The next stage is to learn the basics of professional driving skills: slalom, braking, evading. In the final part of the program you will drive some intensive laps directly behind our instructor.



Cayman or 911....hmmm

--------------------------------------------------------------------
spring sun...needs...chrome...WIP mods

chrome addiction...

WIP....slowly getting there...550-986 outlaw design
(still need to figure out a proper DRL solution)

...and i need that chrome windshield trim sooner or later, for sure. (EDIT: Have that now...just waiting to be installed with a new windshield with a "Grünkeil")
Those "Zunden" chrome bezels (which met my friends "dremel", "file" and "sand paper") are becoming extremely rare. I was lucky enough to find a pair in Japan!

that is what it`s meant for, glad you enjoy it, Bruce...

And the next mod done... (someone should laser cut the PORSCHE letters and illuminate it from inside, that could look cool)
well for now, that should do it for me
A metallic red spoiler wrapping (and ofc no bubbles in the wrapping, although seems like it in the jpeg, weird)
