I think they are a travesty for your Porsche. PM me your address and I can be there in 12 hours to remove them before you further embarrass yourself.

Think they would look better in my Boxster...and as a Boxster owner we are already shunned ...

I will attempt to avoid rain drops and pick them up this morning . I bought two new moving blankets to cover the front seats as I have to transport them in the back of my dually .

I am like a kid on Christmas morning 😁 , I can't wait to see these in person . With a little luck I will get them installed today and post pics .

You need a matching "driving kilt"

Picked up the seats this morning , was lucky and missed any heavy rain . Started install around 11;00 and finished by 1;00 . I took my time especially with the drivers side wiring as I didn't want to fry the memory module . Fortunately I was smart enough to take pics before I removed all the connectors .

The install had no issues and I am very happy with the results . My poor picture taking skills do not do them justice . And just as important the wife really likes them too . They look very impressive in person and all the extra foam and added lumbar support these are very comfy . Another item checked off the list

Loving the 996 seats. Good thinking.

Excuse me Mr Douglas, your ancestors would be spinning in their graves to see you using the wrong tartan.

Those look really good!

My 997 has inserts in the center back and bottom that just pull out. Since my car is blue with red accents I think I am going to order the inserts in this fabric to add some color to the interior. Seeing your pictures sealed the deal for me.
