Not long to go now, so can anyone help me to avoid a ticking off:

1. perspex number plates - should they have the name of the supplying garage or not? Is Halfords / Skoda acceptable or must it be a Porsche dealer?

2. wiper widget - what's the part number and will it fit PIAA blades?

3. number plate plinth hanging on by one screw. I've no idea what to do about this. any ideas?

4. possibly a broken tab on one of the amber side indicators (nooooo)

5. hair-line cracks in wheel centre turbo badges. anyone know of any at a sensible price?

6. washed (garage-queen-style) vs grubby (it gets used...) ?

Get a Porsche dealer to do it. If near Reading then HQ. I have a an ex-Porsche Cars GB car and I got them to do one with that on it rather than 'Porsche Reading' or whatever.

Supplying OPC. Extra points for matching dealer script tax disc holder and main dealer sticker in rear screen.

2. wiper widget - what's the part number and will it fit PIAA blades?

No one cares.

3. number plate plinth hanging on by one screw. I've no idea what to do about this. any ideas?

You'll be rejected from the group like mutant newborn fox cub rejected from the pack if anything is 'hanging off'. You've had months to prepare, there is no excuse.

4. possibly a broken tab on one of the amber side indicators (nooooo)

As above. Get this fixed. Unacceptable.

5. hair-line cracks in wheel centre turbo badges. anyone know of any at a sensible price?

You own a 993 Turbo. The word 'sensible' does not preface the word 'price' in this context. Get new centre caps, preferably with Turbo script from OPC. Your car demands OEM.

6. washed (garage-queen-style) vs grubby (it gets used...)
Upon arrival your car is expected to look crisper than Walkers finest with a hoovered and cleaned off interior. I hope you have addressed the spacecraft in the rear footwell. Only on departure can your car look dirtier than Zingaris browser history.


Hope this helps. Look forward to seeing you.
