Mike, do you have a photo of the plaque inside the rear clubsport wing, any chance of posting a photo on here,
as mine is a non factory carbon fibre wing I would be curious to see this plaque[

I agree Vic,,,there are so many replicas and stickers knocking around, there is even some chap just north of M25 reckons he has some "Speedline for Porsche " wheel stickers? []
Should I just delete the pic altogether??...If you need any detail, by far the best way is to take your own pics of real cars, it's hard to get a perspective of scale on a snapshot otherwise.

me and Julian have commissioned a company in Germany to manufacture the speedline outer rims in high grade Stainless Steel, these should prove to be maintenance free as opposed to the original Aluminium outers which as we all know are prone to problems with both
laquer and non laquer, once completed I will be looking for a stencil to etch the 'speedline for porsche' into the rim along with the offset numbers, anybody know where I could source such a stencil, I've used the stickers before and they are only a short term fix,
also ordered sets of 6 sided bolts in stainless from the same company, these are much cheaper than the 6 sided speedline bolts, the speedline bolts are stamped with a logo on the heads but as I said work out expensive for a full set.

Thanks for the photo Paul, off to the forgers now [] I actually like my carbon fibre wing, its so light compared to the factory wing,
I also have a carbon fibre lid I bought off herr schmitz some time ago, its actually in riviera too, must get round to fitting it.
Off to get my brake calipers refurbished now, paint removed, painted, pistons checked, new seals etc, painted & new stickers,
then laquered, anybody reccommend as to what brake pads I should use? im running standard at the mo, did have pagid but got
sick of the squeeling !

I get my wheel bolts from Pertsch & Partner GmbH - http://www.titanium-touch.de/home.php?language=uk
You should be able to get stencils made up by a local vinyl printer depending on how you are going to carry out the "etching". If you are going to do it chemically you will need masking materials specific to the chemicals being used.

Hi Vic, yes I know Adrian, JP's mate, Julian (silver 7) was quoted £25 a corner to etch the 'speedline for porsche' which I thought was slightly expensive, was looking for a cheaper option, somebody out there will make such a stencil.
Hi Nick, yes thats the company who are making the stainless rims and supplying the bolts, do you know if the etching is done chemically or perhaps sand blasted?
Steve, brake pads is a whole different issue.
Totally depends upon how much track use and how hard your driving style is on brakes.
If you do a few track days a year, standard pads with spiders to keep the noise down are perfect along with decent dot 5 fluid, e.g. castrol SRF
If you were to spend more time on track, RS29 yellow pagids are the long life endurance pad to go for.
I have performance friction, which are ok, but make a lot of dust, I will go back to standard with spiders in the summer.
On the ammount of track use your car gets and the time you spend polishing your pride and joy, I see no reason not to stick with standard pads, they are also cheaper than the exotic track material.

Not seen a new thread, so thought on pads.
I have used Pagids in my 964rs and since then ebc yellow stuff. Lots of people claim they are rubbish. I have seen no evidence of this on trackday/Nurburgring and road use.
They are clean, don't make much noise, don't eat discs, last ok perform brilliantly and cost less I think than standard.
I used yellow all round; some specialists fit red at the back but this ends up with the rear pads melting so ignore such advice!
