Yupp! Phantom 4 Pro+. Really impressed with it, it'll hold me over until I get the Inspire 2 for work. Pelican butchers the image quality a whole bunch. Heres the photo embedded from Flickr.

A week ago I finished the last of the 2500miles, driving the car across 8 states to bring it home.

Today I vacuumed the interior carpet areas and removed and put the floor mats back in. The PO had spilled something on the mats that hardened into a serious amount of opaque/white hard and crystallized like spots but clearly never did anything about it. Luckily with a lot of patience and effort and they eventually came out. Hand washed them after with woolite and left them to air dry for two days.


Now I am considering if coco mats are worth the splurge?

Also I am considering treating the seats with Obenauf's Leather Oil when summer gets here, but any concerns doing so since the seats are clearly spidered?

I suggest cleaning the leather first with good cleaner then treat with Obenauf's. Follow directions, main point is apply within outside temp range for maximum benefit. I've used on old seats and helps to both visually bring back to life, softens the leather and also brings back that 911 leather smell we're so familiar with.

Thanks for the suggestion. Do you have a favorite preferred cleaner? Porche, Zymol, Leder Pledge, Zaino, ??

Hmm, not sure this is apropos since technically I am not doing the work, but, I have sent my 88 3.2 to Pat Williams in Memphis for complete engine rebuild, and a few other bits including front ride height adjustment and the installation of new dash camp. I can't wait to get back behind the wheel!

Completed (well almost) the rebuild on my rear brake calipers. New Rotors, adjusted the ebrake, new SS flex lines. Bleed and put the spacers and wheels on tomorrow.
