This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Chaps Managed to get the the rear calipers painted, new decals fitted then clear lacquered in 2k clear. Match the fronts perfectly now. While I was there I painted the disk hats and edges black. Got around to replacing my rear boxster S badge on the boot lid too. The titanium effect one on there had had the tail of the B broken and glued back on at some point. I can only imagine a previous custodian did it when washing or drying. Well it finally came off so Iv replaced the badge with the chrome effect one from the special edition boxster S. I also covered my badly scratched door pocket lids with blue leather but I hate it so it coming off and going to be vinyl covered silver by my mate who owns a vinyl company. Oh ye its also going in on saturday for full wheel refurb then powder coated, I'm keeping it the same oe colour. her are some pics
