Still in the planning phase. My hope is to paint a wall maybe in checkered flag or something. I have been storing goodies until I am sure how I want to do this. But it will be epic, and I WILL share.

I can, however, take pics of some of my collection that will be in the 993 shrine. Will work on that tomorrow.

New car cover and a set of Tore's HID's. Lots of pent up demand from not having a stable income for a few years. 2016 will be a banner year for my car

Where did you buy your BBS LMs from? Im looking for a used
set. Hard to find for a narrow body with 10" rears. Probably have to
bite the bullet and buy new. Maybe that'll be my tax return present to my 993.

Looks like the Golden Rod is a popular gift this year. We have some
lucky cars. They have owners that shower them with gifts!

For the LMs, I bought them used here on Rennlist, the rears are 18x9.5 ET55. They fit in the rear pretty snug, my car is pretty low, i have 265s on the rear.

My 993 got spoiled this year for two reasons

1) i haven't had a bunch of time over the last 4 years to tend to it due to work
2) my wife and I are expecting our first child in March, so Tis the Season

Congrats on the baby. But the truth is, you won't be buying much after that. If you do, you won't have much time to put the parts in :-)
The reward is better than the sacrifice though.
Aloha brah

Thanks Richard

We're super excited. And yes, that's the reason i've spent this fall/winter doing everything on the car i've been wanting to do for years. I've mentally prepared myself that the shop will be vacant for the next 6-8 months.
