Looks great. My neighbor across the street took one of the Houston launch vehicles with same color combo, just with a whole lot of carbon fibre.

Some of those photos look like Presidio SF. I used to live on the base just up the hill from those shots as an Army Medical Corp physician. Loved the location!! Have fun.

Cytoboy, you are correct on that assumption. Beautiful place (The Presidio), and a great way to get away from the city in short time.

Thanks again guys. Update on my Homelink. I was able to get it to work (have a LiftMaster Chamberlin 2001). There was an additional step to perforn because of the rolling codes that I was able to get downloading the manual from the internet....less clutter. I also removed the passport 8500 from the window w/suction cups and clipped it on the passenger sunvisor instead. Now it doesn't drive me nuts banging against the windshield every time I hit a bump.

No matter what I do I can't get that homelink to work! I also have a chamberlain opener. What extra step did you do?
FWIW, the one extra leather peice I would have like to get was the center console lid, mistake.

1) hit learn on the homelink of the car then depress your opener remote next to the bumper to let the car learn the signal from the remote

2) hit the learn on the opener itself then depress your homelink (car) button to allow the opener to learn the signal from the car.

You can still get it (I have that option) but my interior is black. You need to find someone with sea blue int with that option and ask them for permission to use their VIN to order it. I did it for someone else on the board, it shouldn't be too difficult.

Why can't you just order the part yourself? Why does Porsche make it so hard. I bet Gert @ Carnewal can get it for you.

Thats a lot of leather! It looks amazing though. You dont see the leather upper console and visors that much. I love the illuminated door entry gaurds too. I would say you did extremely well!

Haven't even gotten my car yet (flying out tomorrow) and i'm thinking "damn, should have gotten the leather dome light or illuminated sills" etc. LOL.
