Sunday project.
Got my Porsche factory tinted GT3RS tail lights installed today.
I had to remove the entire spoiler assembly just to access the 2 torx mounting screws for each light.
Took about an hour, but no big deal.
I am not sure if I will keep the clear lights or sell them.
It would be like changing shirts every once in a while for a different look!

Nice! I've personally never cared for the clear look.

Will be picking this up tomorrow. The 2017 cabriolet developed a problem that had it in the shop more than my garage. The dealer made good on their commitment to customer satisfaction giving exactly what I paid for it in trade and a hefty discount on the new car.

Thanks guys!

I really had no intention of doing this. After selling my Turbo S to drive more of a daily driver at reasonable highway speeds, I was happy to have found a silver 2017 cab. While it only had 15,000 miles on it, there were some very annoying electrical gremlins that continued to surface and after three times back to the dealership and two weeks without a resolution, I decided it was time to look for another car.

The C4S reminds me a lot of the Turbo S in terms of handling but it’s much more tame and provides a good balance of performance and driving awareness/experience.

The color is called Chalk - they actually charge extra for it and I like it because there are not too many around. My “go to” color has always been silver so I guess it was time to mix things up a bit.

Hmmm....Never heard of a car being too fast or quick.
I wish my TTS was even faster and quicker, but love it every day I drive it!!
Best car I have ever owned.
