Patt Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 I'm currently working away, and I ordered the kit before the first lockdown. If I recall it was about £1500 for the kit, plus fitting and alignment. Seem to recall the book quoted 6 hours. Best to give Russ a call and see how the supply from mainland Europe is working.

LOL - and I'm looking for a sensibly priced set of the anniversary rims in 20" as I prefer the look of my winters. I'll shout you if I find a set as I'll be looking to pass on my Carrera S rims.

Patt Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Replaced the battery (CR2032) on the key fob. 10 second job and no tools required. Was surprised to see the dash tell me in needed doing - it flashes up quite quickly as you go to start her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mja986 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 A few weeks into the 981: cleaned, polished, protected inside and out, new front tyres (Eagle F1), installed nmautomotive CarPlay, replaced interior/boot bulbs with LEDs, installed a wind deflector (and the necessary retaining parts 🙄), investigating a stiffer rear arb, thinking about front/side grills and heated seats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonewolfgjp Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 They aren’t cheap but mine fitted really well and look factory. Plus you don’t have to faff about removing bumpers or trimming mesh. I tried Zunsports on my 986 and wasn’t impressed with the look or the fit. I ordered some more for my 987.1 and only held them up in place before I sold them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
