Very nice. Just love the black + carbon dark looks.

A few things that I think are unique about my car, especially where I live, are:

Had the car covered in Xpel Stealth PPF
Swapped out the gold wheel center caps for silver and black ones
Installed Numeric pedals
Instead of just going with a Numeric short shifter, I also installed their cables - what a difference they made in shifting!

I'm not normally the biggest fan of the satin-look car finish (I'm too traditional I guess), but your car looks great! Also, being a wrap rather than paint, you retain flexibility. The center caps are subtle and definitely match the look.

Pedals look very good too. I wasn't familiar with Numeric and was curious to find out more so I went to their website. Made of billet aluminum which is excellent - Cerakote too which is another big plus. They look to be very high quality. Are you pleased with them and how they perform considering that they are a bit larger than stock? Any issues so far?

Looking good. I like seeing the things that you all are doing to your cars. It's pretty cool!

Speaking of cool, looks like you and TheBeav are a good many digits below 0°F tonight in MA. Cars and pets and people def need to stay inside! Spent a year or so stationed in Ayer not far from Loeminster many, many years ago. Just checked and it's -10F in Ayer. That's chilly!

Thanks! I REALLY love the look and given the fact that I mostly drive on back roads where I live, it's nice to have the option to replace the PPF on the panel that gets so beat up by rocks from the front tires!

The Numeric pedals work great! There is no downside to them. The larger size is a plus when you roll the ball of your foot to heel-toe downshift. I'm seeing a little wear on the clutch pedal, put overall, they still look new.

The local Porsche club has a lot of their DE and AutoX events at Ayer!

Very cool! I was stationed at Ft Devens for over a year. Ayer on one side and Shirley on the other. Visits up the road to Loeminster. I cannot imagine what it looks like there now 'cause it was back in the Mesozoic era when I was there. Great memories with visits to Baahstan, my caas (a crappy old Bel Air followed by a nice like-new '65 2dr 326ci Le Mans 4-sp that was 6-years old with only about 25k miles when I got it) and, of course, rotaries, new to me then but now common in many other states.

Met a couple who had a 911 912 (maybe a '68) that I got to ride around in a few times. One of those wow moments! Our company CO was from Boston and had never had a DL. I'd drive him around at times when he wanted to go somewhere; a great guy and a hoot to be around, funny as hell - loved basketball - but couldn't drive!

Most of what I've done is track oriented, but I'm fascinated with all of the other kinds of mods discussed on this thread. I found a company, P1 Designs that looks to have high quality products. https://p1designs.com/

Did your inserts come from them?

Post a pic or two if you can.

They did and Kim and her husband are both fantastic to work with. I actually ordered about 30 swatches from different companies for fabrics just to differentiate the car a little bit. Thought I would go a little bit retro with the blue black Pasha. She then ordered the fabric for me and made the inserts. Should be here any day now and I will post pics once it’s available. I can’t recommend P1 designs enough.
