Enjoyable modification
Adding this 930s steering wheel to my 88 Carrera has been the single most enjoyable mod to my car. The car has a completely different "feel"
What single mod has made the most impact on your car?

Hard to choose which made biggest impact though....
Rollbar Ducktail Bumperette removal Dual exit muffler Painting wheel centers Painting window trim Painting Fan and housing Some of the other mods were done by previous owner: Drilled rotors Braided brake lines Prototipo steering wheel Cocoa mats Turbo tie rods Lowered ride height Cat bypass

A good racing seat and harness made a real difference. Once held in the seat properly I lost the death grip on the wheel and could relax and drive.

Everything
For me it was the paint, wheels, suspension, glass, rubbers, and motor...After replacing my rims I almost felt content. Still have lots of work to do but being in Iraq only adds money to the bank and there is no way for it to fix itself...but she is waiting on me unless my wife gave up the keys to "Jody"....

The single best mod was not to my car, it was to me...learning how to drive her HARD! I do enjoy the 930S wheel, harnesses, seats etc...
