    Looks great, at night your 997s could look like a stealth jet fighter on the road !
    Yes, interior pics, I want to see the Center console in Carbon please, ride looks nice in Slate!

    Change your side markers to white, will match the back!
    Nice color scheme!!

    Looks great! and the black dials really are beautiful! Can imagine that was quite worryful, as it is the part of the car you'll be seeing most!

    Superb. Looks mint. Gunna have to get myself one of those carbon engine covers. Wish I'd got the black dials also.

    Thank you all for the kind words of approval. To say I am pleased with the final results would be an understatement.

    The omission of the Sport Chrono was intentional. I don't wish to get into a Sport Chrono debate here but I personally don't like look of the clock on the dash or the front loaded throttle mapping and it doesn't add any power to the engine.
