When I refreshed the exterior on my Targa I did the following:
- Replaced smile (the original had rust bubbles)
- Replaced front and rear window seals (only use Genuine Porsche seals to avoid trouble!)
- Replace accordions at front and rear with nice used pieces bought from Pelican Forums for sale section.
- Replaced rear bumperettes with nice used pieces bought from Pelican Forums for sale section.
- Cowl seals (as suggested by JTL) - There are small seals between the front fenders and cowl and a few other spots.
- Seal behind torsion bar cover
- Door seals
- Frunk seal
- Headlight Trim ring seals
- Window squeegees on both sides
- Window guide rail seal - front edge of window
- Felt trim for windows (these are pricey for what they are, but in my case they had disintegrated)
I reused everything else. In my case I had all of my black trim stripped and plated or polished depending on material. If you're keeping the trim black, and it is looking faded, replating and/or powder coating is a good idea.
