It’s in for brakes today and I told them the appropriate torque is 90 ft lbs and I will attempt again tomorrow.
I show 118 ft lbs for our cars. I switch wheels regularly for auto-x and that's what I use for torquing the nuts.
Yes, 118 ft lbs is correct for our 718s. I think Bruinfn4lf was referring to his VW GTi in the general conversation of wheel/tire switchovers from winters to summers.
Ah, missed that. Oops

Nothing too drastic - clear side marker lights- Porsche part.. Huge improvement over the orange on the Agate Grey. Almost it looks like it came that way.

Agreed, it is specific to each color however some colors just work better with the clear. Maybe most...

Signed the paperwork, paid for the 2024 Cayman base, rode shotgun with the sales ambassador driving to the PPF shop (because I won't let myself drive Grasshopper until the official reveal 25 May -- there was a grasshopper on the passenger-side mirror, so that's what the car wanted to be named). You should see the smile on the wife's beautiful face <g>.

Congrats on the 718! Cool way to come up with a name too - the grasshopper is good luck!
A belated welcome to Carpokes!

My mind is quite flexible , but my body no longer is what it used to be, so I let my son Ryan install my new Zunsport grill guards. It took him maybe 15 minutes and that was only because I wanted to tape around the openings to avoid any scratches. Just one quick picture, nothing fancy, but it is a clean looking product.
