Zunsport grills front and side, easy install.
Blendmount w/ V-1 gen 2 and SAVVY mount in OBDII port, easiest way to get power.
Changing CF wheel for custom all leather w/ contrasting stitching (work in progress, you can follow my journey on another
thread if you are a masochist.
Cupholder to replace the ashtray
PPF on front and around wheel arches.
Ceramic coating
Clear side markers
Carpoke rear license plate mounts
Porsche crest valve caps
CF and body color key accents-CF from eBay and I painted the other myself.

Compared to my previous 981 GTS this is skimpy so far.

I have been looking for a cup holder to replace my ashtray for my 2022 718 Cayman GTS. Can you please post a link where to buy it? Much appreciated!

There have been some bad reviews and folks not getting their products after long waits, but most of those were for lights for other vehicles. I had to wait a long time for the cupholder but it was still in development and once released they shipped mine out. It won't hold big cups like a Big Gulp but will hold a coffee cup or can of Coke easily enough. Very similar to the new 911 factory cupholder. The match isn't perfect with the console trim but pretty close and difficult to see a difference except in strong light.

YMMV.

I think a Viofo A129 Pro Duo is essential. Captures 4K in the front and 1080P in the back so there's no "he said, he said." Saved me within my first 6 weeks as an idiot rear-ended me in the parking lot WHILE I WAS PARKED IN MY SLOT!! Sent the rear video to my insurance company and the offender's insurance paid the full cost.

Kind of hard to believe a new Porsches still comes with an ashtray. I wonder what percent of new Porsche owners in 2022 smoke, or allow smoking, in their car? In the US anyway, that has to be a single digit number I'd think...?

Europeans are still big smokers, Germans especially. Cars built for a world market still reflect much of the native culture. Germans believe if you want a Coke you stop at a restaurant, so no cupholders(until recently), but it's perfectly fine to smoke while driving.

On the zunsports, I have seen that the outer shave changed design and are a single grille rather than an upper and lower. From what I had seen, they didn’t look as good and the split design upper/lower looked more OEM.
For fitting, I followed guidance from a Porsche Club GB member who suggested using the plastic bags they come in to protect the paintwork when installing- worked well.

Do you have a link for the owner’s manual leather sleeve? Don’t want to pay for the OEM one. Did you get the newest version of the first aid kit that attaches to Frunk wall with Velcro?

And yes, I got the Suncoast Porsche first aid kit, with the Velcro strap included.
