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.

Outcome without a verified action link
I tried to shine up the exhaust tips on my old 2006 Cayman S with Brasso, almost no improvement at all.
Picked up my new to me 2003 base C2 this week, pretty happy with it except:
1) Frunk kept popping open on the trip home. Now it's popping open around town. Can I adjust this or does it require someone who knows what they're doing?
2) Cupholder face came off in my hand. Then cupholder absolutely refused to open at 2:00 pm today, repeatedly. Got it open at 2:30 pm, first try. Replaced the face and shut it. Don't think I'll be using it again. I'll drink when I get home.
3) Bose power amp quit on day 2. That story has its own post here:

Any comments or suggestions are welcome, thanks!

2 owners, I am #3. 79k miles.
VIN Analytics shows these option codes:
415 18" Turbo Look II wheels- Somebody pulled a switcheroo. I've been looking for a 996.2 for 4 months. Didn't like the Turbo Looks at first, preferred the Carreras. Now have to say I'm a little disappointed I didn't get the Turbo Looks. But these Carreras show pretty well, I think.
425 Rear Window Wiper- Somebody did a wiper delete. All that's left is a paint color correct button type hole filler where the wiper shaft used to be. Ok!
X54 Stainless Steel Exhaust Pipes- (Should be "Tips" rather than "Pipes") The car was detailed pretty well at a Porsche dealer where I bought it. I tried to shine up the exhaust tips on my old 2006 Cayman S with Brasso, almost no improvement at all. Looks like the boys at the dealer didn't fare much better here. Any suggestions to brighten these up a little?
Pull the frunk carpet foward and u wil see 2 bolts. Loosen and adjust the latch. Make sure u have access to the manual cable jic u make it too tight for the electronic soleniod.
For the cup holder....they were junk when new so 20 years later they r worse. Its broken, no parts r available . Buy a new one the newer style one from pelican or spend the $ for a factory one and never use it.
