Patt Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 congrats. Don't forget to update your "my ride" too 😉 I've just had the estimate in to replace my not very old X73 rear struts after one too many potholes on the main road into work....didn't expect there to be 4 digits before the decimal place ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know I've seen the set for sale in the classifieds but I dont know if I believe lower is better now. My standard passive damper ride height 981 is just so easy to live with.

Patt Posted July 10, 2023 Report Share Posted July 10, 2023 The kit is a great price, but I only need the rear dampers (always replace in pairs) And after getting under the car to have one last attempt (failed) at my PSE, I think I also need a new alloy too. POTHOLES SUCK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patt Posted July 10, 2023 Report Share Posted July 10, 2023 and with all things - get multiple quotes. One indi tried to quote me 5 hours labour The complete X73 kit took less time to fit than that ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andygo Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) Got back earlier this week after spending 18 days in the Dordogne. Photo shows my Cayman basking in the sun and close to the sunflowers and pool. The roads are just fantastic near here, the car tells nme it has had a lovely time.. seemed to be quite a few cyclist about though. Quite a novelty, edge of road > grass verge. Not a pothole in sight. UK, take note! Edited July 16, 2023 by andygo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, my second choice early this year, when looking for a 981 to replace my 987.2, was an identical looking car to yours, same colour combo and wheels. The only thing that took it off the list was that it was higher mileage than my own car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patt Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 If you wouldn't mind, please PM me the quote too. Mine won't budge as one side is starting to tear just like yours has. I'm going to try visit my tame exhaust place on Friday to see if he can work some magic. I miss my PSE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emil2099 Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 Went from delaminating headlights to like-new headlights. Having attempted the lens replacement job myself on a previous Boxster, want to give a shout out to Neil from RENNLENS who does the job at a very reasonable cost and to the highest quality. Sent my headlights to him on Monday, got them back on Friday, top job. Before: After: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
