The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) V

JARblue · 05-04-2013, 03:09 PM

So obviously I had no clue what was going on today (par for the course). I thought we had plans at 1 pm, but then I'm told it's 3 pm. So I start painting my side markers. After two coats, I come out to a hair in the third coat. I tried to see if it would come off cleanly, but no dice. Wipe of the paint and start over

One is now done and only two coats on the other one and it's time to go lol. Oh well, I think the second one looks better anyway. They're on opposite side of the car, so you won't see both at the same time anyway

It's now time for some fence repair and then probably a little work before the family gathering today.

Thank you Jar!! I have family in from out of town, hope to get to video tomorrow! You guys are the best!

These guys just gave me the idea for my new license plate (if the state allows it) "0FKSGVN"

So instead of fixing the fence, I prepped my side markers for painting. I'm going to try the DupliColor Shadow (black chrome) on if first, but color matching is my backup plan. They were a bit scratched up, so I took some Adam's Metal Polish #2 to them, which did an acceptable job.

Ok I've seen everyone talking about duplicolor shadow, what's this stuff all about?

Is this the one Porsche decided to make with PDK only?

LMBmikeZ · 05-04-2013, 05:46 PM

yes you are correct only PDK

but Turbo S looks

and comes with 560hp and a 2.9sec 0-60!

kenchan · 05-04-2013, 05:47 PM

wow, nice job on the masking, mr. jar!

for me, re-adjusted the whitelines (hopefully for the last time, wtf), and TOOK MY WIFE along for the test drive!

first time in 4yrs my wife sat in my Z.

she said she loved my car.

Any "toy car" I have/will ever own will always be a MT, I feel it gives me a more of a driving experience. It's like someone getting an AT motorcycle

Some vehicles are good to be only AT, but the new Porsche 911 should not be one of them if anything just make it an "available option"
