Looks like the ladder is upside down.
Not quite:



Not the exact ladder, but same principals, added safety.

Thank you!



Cheers Marty we will still have the same small family-style approach but James has a lot more room to play with... and no doubt lock us out of! Please do come out and we'll need some luck!

Here is James & Junior (me) installing the sign itself:


What you don't see is James rollocking me for dropping the hardware...


Of course he got the nice ladder and I didn't. It was quite wobbly at 20 feet...

James doing the all important fin...


And all done:
Looks great, how about doing the fin in Carbon

Just funning. Used to be a bit of a wrench myself so I know you guys are capable of hanging your sign.

Au contraire! That was the first sign I ever hung and I certainly wouldn't hire myself again

Yes! The track options are fantastic. We have Daytona, Sebring, Palm Beach, Homestead, and Roebling Road, all within four hours!

Still finishing up this move but busy in the mean-time... This local 2010 Grey/Red (as it was originally) themed 997.2RS came into us for a host of goodies including the SharkWerks Exhaust coupled with our larger diameter ceramic coated tips. We also tuned her with the EVOMSit software mapping. The red was replaced with silver and black giving her quite a different look indeed!

Arriving and in-line..


On the lift she goes...


Bumper cover off and on goes the SharkWerks Exhaust:


Meanwhile the Bosch Motronic ECU on the flash-bench...


A close-up of the larger diameter 88mm SharkWerks Tips:


There she is decked out in her silver motif...


But she can also wear black...


Ready to go home!


Meanwhile... another 2010 997GT3 project (with the EVOMSit, out tips, our exhaust and a few other goodies) was updated with satin-black powdercoated wheels.



Yum!


A few other goodies:


There was also a brand new 2011 997TT S that came in to get "started". The entire car was wrapped by Premier in their new Satin guard style.



The first modification is a set of factory Porsche 997GT2 sideskirts:


Moving along is this project 997GT2 with a refresh of sorts. A 997GT2 motor out isn't something we see too often. There are a lot of trick differences vs the regular TT motor (intake manifold etc..) so here you go
