I'm not very big on stretch and poke jobs... but damn that looks nice.

PS... I like that white 944 Turbo (951) the best.

Silver Gauge Rings are on the way... debating whether or not I want to vinyl wrap the interior trim.

What's the best fix for the missing pixels on both the dash & the radio?

Overall it was pretty esay but the console was a bitch. You have to remove it to get the pieces off. Plenty of DIY around for the console removal...

you can DIY with a ribbon from pixelfix.net (i think its shipped from yugoslavia or something) and the instructions found on the net, from what i've heard its time consuming, and very precise work, but definitely DIY-able.

The gauge rings i'd save till when you fix the cluster, that way you only crack it open once.


Personally, I'm probably just gonna send my cluster to www.vdorepair.com and have them take care of that and the gauge rings one of these days, lifetime warranty and no worries about fading pixels again or that i screwed up my cluster.
