This arrived this morning, always like to have the COA with the car. Nice you don't have to pay being a member of the Porsche Club worth the annual sub.

Thanks Darren, they have come up really well. Bolster on the driver seat was completely gone when they stripped it back, new foam, all sorted, original cover back on. The horrible stitched Porsche badge now just looks like the leather has been embossed. Very pleased.

Nice work Tom. The the rest of the car is going to be fabulous too.
Loving the wheel choice.
Can't beat a bit of black.

Regards
Mike

Stopped in today around lunch.

Wheels back with the tyres on, centre bearing on front hubs off and will get repacked with grease. Brake back plates and rear anti roll bar off to get powder coated. Brakes all cleaned ready for painting. Wife's old registration just happens to be age appropriate being a 1980 plate, much better than it sitting on retention. I can now tell her I have bought another car, expect she will be pleased we are using the plate. :lol:

Wheels look great, looking forward to doing mine. Ordered wheel spacers today and will get car lowered in the next few weeks.
