I drove down from the Bay Area, filled my Cayenne to the gills with parts, and drove back, in one day...
Leading evidence: 'Fill cayenne' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'prior owner deleted them' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Check messages' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I then subsequently installed the UAOS, which totally eliminates the coolant loop on the AOS.

Drivers side is fine, passenger side the abs sensor hole is buggered up but can be repaired with a timesert.

Suggestion
Compressor line kit was shipped a duplicate, filter cartridge for standard oil filter (I have spin on adapter, someone got this as oil change kit for gift), WeatherTech universal cupholder phone mount, front license plate frame with foam back strips to protetct paint, 996 "Schnell" short shift kit (went to OEM 997), and some carbon style flush mount hood pins.

On other forums, "Pay It Forward" posts have been very popular.
The only stipulation to receive something is that you must then offer something for free too.
It doesn't have to be of equal value, just something you don't need that someone else can use.
I'll start this out and see if it takes off.
I ordered this from Amazon:
Amazon
Amazon
...and it came with two extra undrilled camshaft hold down tools.
If anyone in the USA or Canada wants the two undrilled holders, be the first to post "I'll take it" and I'll send them to you for
FREE
.
...just in case no one wants tools...Here's a car part:
I have two door speakers out of a parted out 986.
They should also fit a 996..
Unknown condition, but hey, they're free!

Used sunroof motor which doesn't have functioning memory for the endpoint calibration for one-touch operation, but still works fine if you're willing to hold the buttons down (I was not!
).
Secondary air injection valve, confirmed working. Replaced preventively when my vacuum canister pooped out and I was in there anyway, but this one still works.

I have the black plastic front spoiler lip from my aero kit. I took it off as it would scrape on driveways as I have the M030 suspension. It’s not perfect, has a few scrapes but I’m happy to give away to anyone that wants it. Just cover the shippping and it’s yours.
Hey Larz,
I had 4 guys PM me within minutes of posting. Had no idea they were that sought after. I think I have it going to a RLister but if it falls through I�ll let you know.
Thanks. It looks like there are two different versions for the 996 on the PET. I guess I'll need to open up my door to see which version of speaker box I have, if I have any at all. I suspect the prior owner deleted them to install the Kicker (crappy) speakers that are currently in the doors.
My 996.2 has the larger speaker "boxes"(13) in the doors.
Mine has the Bose system.
The smaller speaker "boxes"(5) appear to be for the standard sound system.
I think you�re right. But the smaller boxes are for the M490 option as the base cars didn�t have speakers in the doors. I still need to check to see if my boxes are installed or if the last guy ripped them out.
Will report back soon.
Hello and sorry for the slow reply...
Here is what is left from the original group:
*Amber side markers from a 996.2
*2 bulbs H3 12V 55W
*996.1 '99 3.4L left over intake parts, Hose, Resonator, Plenum
There are more parts, I will probably finish the clean out next next weekend.
Props to
@TexSquirrel
for this thread and for doing a trade with me. He sent me the 996 door speakers/boxes and I sent him a Function First orange/soft transmission mount.
Thanks Tex!
My pleasure. Fortunate to be able to support the forum a tad. The knowledge and parts received here has been amazing. Here is the final clean out list (I promise), all parts are either for sale (in classifieds) or in the list below:

*Simpson used Driving Shoes Men�s 10.5, good shape
*Simpson driving gloves, Men�s L, decent shape, LH Velcro has a small rip, still works if you are careful

Driving Shoes
3.4L Intake Parts
GoPro mount
OEM air compressor with cracked case (still works fine)<—newly added, did not sell from the parts classifieds
Well the passenger side went quicker, but still was tough to get off.
Heres before, during and after photos.
Before
During. I used dental floss to get under the original sill so I could pull it up enough to get my interior tool underneath. Then it was a tedious push and pull to get the adhesive to release the sill.
Finally done.
I have both....but I am keeping MK2 one for another 996 build in the future (they are my favorite tips). If we can figure out easy way to ship, you can have MK1 tips.
I have some fabspeed MK1 tips I ran with before I got my Mk2 bumper and now custom exhaust (with welded on MK2 tips). I was planning on selling the fabspeed tips sometime in the future. I would give you a good deal on those so PM me if interested.
Dranon, thanks for hooking me up, with the side markers. I have the digital download of the first 50 issues of Total 911 Magazine. Whoever is interested, send me a PM with your email address, and I'll send everyone the link next week, once i hear back from anyone who wants it.
Hi can I get the side marker I need the driver side.
People tend to change them for clear but I want to keep my car in stock form.
I also have parts to offer!
Way back in December 2017, I purchased an oversized 20" vinyl Meatball/Roundelle from Squire Designs for my carbon fiber hood.
https://squierdesign.com/meatballs.html
I went with a plain one so I could use static cling numbers, but then changed my mind and went with a Roundelle with the trim ring and permanent number.
I have an unused 20" plain Meatball/Roundelle that is yours for the asking.
Would be great for hoods or even the side of a car.
Here's what I ended up using:
The Meatball/Roundelle I have is the $24 20", no ring, no numbers.

If you ask for these,
please plan to put something up for someone else.
Free to good home, un-used carbon fiber mirror covers.
These are the $100 versions from eBay.
The carbon fiber weaving and clear coat almost looks as nice as the $325 Rennline mirror shells, but are not the complete shell.
There is doublesided tape that hold the cover to your 996/986 mirror.
I purchased these covers 2 days before Rennline announced their mirror shells.
I ordered the Rennline mirrors and installed them before these covers arrived from china, so these covers have never been installed..
The mirror itself in the pictures is not included, only the two carbon fiber covers.
The cover is not attached obviously, I just placed it on a spare mirror so you could see how much of your mirror it will cover.
Underside with the doublesided tape:
That's a very generous offer! If I didn't just buy a new pair I would take you up on that! Some early 99 owner will be very lucky!
PM me about the gas cap.
I have a replacement seal for VW/Audi/Porsche gas caps.
Let me know if you need one.
I also have an RSS Underdrive pulley.
It comes with no tool, or belt.
But you can make a tool with parts from Home Depot.
I’ll supply pics.
(or if you’re not in a hurry, I‘ll make a tool for it.)
Also I can give you the Continental belt part number.
First „I‘ll take it“ below gets it.“
I also have a pressure plate and clutch disc. 20,000 miles, lots of life left.
shipping on your dime or pick up in 95672.
gone, spoken for by that quick with a cursor TexSquirrel!
I have a free 996.2 Xenon headlight.
It's not in perfect condition, but it's not horrible.
Slight chip on the front edge that's not real noticeable when installed.
All the bulbs work, except the turn signal.
I swapped it with the faulty one in my new-to-me 996.2 headlight.
This one is the later style without the lines.
It works in a C2, but I think it originally fit a C4 & Turbo.
The ballast and Xenon bulbs work great.
The only request is I'd like someone to pay 1/2 the shipping cost once they receive it.
(Try to find one of these for under $500 on eBay, I dare you)
If you look closely you'll maybe see the notched chip in the front left corner.
The turn signal bulb was removed. You'll receive a corroded housing(verde green) and a defective bulb. I swapped it because I'm lazy!
First "I'll take it" below gets it.
Follow that up with your address in PM.
I'll take it! See your PM.
EDIT: I have a complete set of stock springs available. 100K miles. They're coming off a targa but should work on a cab as well. I have the fronts now. Will post another message when I have all 4 available.
I also have the original targa sunshade I replaced with the updated 997 version. Nothing wrong with it, I just wanted the tighter weave of the 997 unit.
wonder what this would do on my 4.0 build? Thinking I should find out..... I'll take it and see what I have up to offer. A brake master cylinder come to mind.
I'll take it, but can I pay only 1/10th the shipping cost?
Always negotiate! Just kidding obviously. Very generous offer. I hope whoever ends up with it at least covers the full shipping costs.
.
I just pulled the original suspension off my �99 C2. It had 99,900 miles on it when I replaced it. Free to a good home if anyone is wanting to send an extra set of struts/shocks off to Bilstein for a rebuild.
Probably no takers but I hate to just junk the set.
I actually have the "full monty" front suspension too from my 104K mile car, not just the springs. I figured nobody would want shocks, suspension arms, stabilizer bar links, or tie rods with those miles on them. They'll be here for a bit longer if anyone wants anything, but then they're going to a metal recycling bin. Southeast-ish PA if you want to pick them up.
It's yours.
If you haven't done it yet, send me a PM with your address.
Sorry, wdb beat you to it.
I hope to ship all this and more off tomorrow or Friday.
Hi all...
I am looking at the kindness of strangers to see if i can locate the black screwdriver from a belt roll or the wheel lug wrench nut.. these are the 2 pieces missing from mine..
I can obviously use a random screwdriver and usually get tires done at a shop but I am dreading the day i get a flat...
if anyone can help
@TexSquirrel
I looked for these on ebay without luck ... are these it?
Mercedes-Benz OEM Screwdriver Tool 1635810020 | eBay
BMW SCREW DRIVER TOOL M5 F01 550I 535I 528I 740 750 (09-12) OEM | eBay
Yes, the BMW one looks like it.
They're made by the same company and don't have any automotive manufacture's name/part numbers.
You can't tell a BMW screwdriver from a Porsche one.
That Mercedes looks different(Newer version?) but is likely from the same manufacturer.
I have the rear suspension parts from my 1999 C4 which had 130,000 miles. PM if interested in any of those and I can let you know what I have. Could use a decent flywheel if anyone has one.
Also have some misc. items in the garage that can go to a good home. Compressor line kit was shipped a duplicate, filter cartridge for standard oil filter (I have spin on adapter, someone got this as oil change kit for gift), WeatherTech universal cupholder phone mount, front license plate frame with foam back strips to protetct paint, 996 "Schnell" short shift kit (went to OEM 997), and some carbon style flush mount hood pins.
PM sent.
It's definitely more notchy, kind of awkward to get in reverse (feels really close to first). Throw is short but has decent firm feel, but ultimately the 997 just feels smoother and more natural, slightly better than OEM 996. If would do any upgrade at this point would be Numeric, but it's a weekend car so just not really worth it.
Sure thing, PM me address and I'll get it them shipped out, small items so I'll cover shipping.
I finally got around to ordering and today I received my aluminum RMS install tool.
I had a grey 3D printed one from Chris (a fellow 996 Rennlister) and a white Delrin one. (also from a 996 Rennlister)
I don't need 3 install tools, so the grey 3D printed one is up for adoption.
The 3D printed one will work just fine(used only once) but I wanted a more durable one for multiple RMS installs.
First "I'll take it" below gets it.
Follow that up with a PM with your address.
LN IMS/The IMS Solution install tools and case not included!
My apologies Scott, thought I had responded to that message so the filter kit slipped my mind, it's definitely still yours. I'll get everyone's items shipped out this week, had parents in town visiting last week so didn't have any free time.
That is the box my expensive replacement headlight came in.
The foam-in-place makes it great for shipping.
I knew right away I was going to keep it so I could sell my old light on eBay, or in the Marketplace here.
Then decided I�d just offer it up for free instead.
Gotta keep this thread alive.
Shipping yours tomorrow. Will PM with tracking.
Wish I could say my poor memory is age related, well, it probably is, but more-so from the poor choices in the younger years of it lol! Yours will also be shipping out tomorrow.
Yours will ship Thursday, the box I grabbed from my work packages today wasn't quite big enough to fit everything.
Not exactly a "Pay it forward" but I need a Stromski Exhaust Bolt Repair Kit for my 1999 Porsche 996 C4. I am willing to buy a used one or rent one for a one time use. If I can't find someone who will sell or rent then I will buy it from Stromski.
Thanks and PM if you can help.

The following decklid decals are available for FREE.
The first person to post in this thread, "I'll take X decal" gets that decal.
Follow that up with a PM with your address.
Emissions & Vacuum diagram Aufkleber:
996.1 emissions decal.
I'm not certain why I have a 3.4L emissions decal?!?
I have a 996.2!
The vacuum line diagram should work for 996.1 or 996.2.
Don't cross-thread on me Aufkleber:
Screw on your cap straight decal...in case you didn't know.
Cross threading is verbotten.
Mobil1 �l Aufkleber
The factory used Mobil1.
Etwas anders ist verbotten sagt diesen Aufkleber.
If you run DT40, this decal will ignite into a ball of flame, so apply with caution.
OK
@NikosLee
, they're yours.
Just send a PM with your address.
Don't forget to post something for someone else when you find you have an extra of something.
Anyone else have something they want to post up for free?
I should have some stuff for this thread next week. I just sold a bunch of randoms as part of a large lot last weekend and i want to empty a few more totes
FREE to a good home! Just pay shipping. I got this to use with our 2020 garage doors and our 2007 BMW, but it loses sync every time the power goes out and that happens almost weekly where I live. I finally gave up and bought another remote unit.
Instructions are in the box. It's pretty straightforward. The repeater plugs into the wall, the wire thingie is its antenna. The included remote is used to sync the repeater to the sending unit in the car. Multiple buttons/vehicles/doors can be synced; I used it for 2 cars and 3 doors, no problem (other than the aforementioned power outages).
Someone please take it off my hands.
I have a couple of cases of Made in USA Napa Gold 1348 filters..
That will hold me for 12 years, so I don't need these extra Made in China Napa Gold 1348 filters.
Understood this is not a 996 part. I know there are 997's among us, so I'll start here. Plenum to Intake runner seal for 06-08 -S cars. 99711068540. I only have one.
First PM with an address gets it.
Speaking of the next generation... I have a brand new tow hook cover for a 987, might also work for a 997. No pics, PM me and we can figure out how to get it to you.
That helped!
Getting the correct opening size and 6mm round pin was a bit of a search
I found them here
https://www.bloomertool.com/DIN-1810...-Wrenches.html
For info, Bilstein USA won't answer emails or phone calls.
.
I bought this metal version a few years ago just in case the factory plastic piece ever decided to let loose. I then subsequently installed the UAOS, which totally eliminates the coolant loop on the AOS. I�ve had this sitting around in a box ever since.
Free to whoever wants it. You pay the shipping.
Anyone have a factory tow hook they aren't using and wants to sell/ give away ? I am missing mine and don't want to pay $50 to Porsche and don't want an aftermarket one
I have some used GT3 Cup Car adjustable control arms for FREE. (Help paying for shipping cost once you receive them would be nice, but not required)
First person to post "I'll take it" below gets first shot at them. Follow that up with your US/Canadian address.
(Please read entire post before posting!)
The good part:
Fully adjustable for camber.
Race car parts!
The bad part:
One of the control arms(L) has a torn ball joint boot.
See known & unknown below
The known:
I pulled the caster bearing on one of the outer control arms and rotated it to make it a "left side" control arm. For a base 996, you install the control arms on the other side. I can't remember if "L" is the Cup car "Left" or the base Carrera "Left". I marked it a while ago and don't remember. But I'll get underneath my 996 and take a look and can hopefully advise.
The inner control arms are different styles. One is an OEM length and one is an extended (by 16mm) length. In order to use both at 1 time, one side will need 16mm of spacers. I recommend
NOT
doing this, but instead you should buy an OEM or extended length inner control arm to match.(expect this to run ~$200)
You will need an alignment after installing these! (expect this to run ~$200 too)
I 've owned these for quite a while(I think I paid around $400 about 6 years ago) but in the end when I decided to purchase an OEM length inner to match so I could install them I decided to purchase two instead. Then I decided to purchase brand new outers. I only used/kept the shims.
Unknown:
I don't know the condition of the ball joints. (this is a bigger issue if you're paying someone to install than if you're DIYing, just don't be mad at me if you also have to replace one or both outers at ~$200 each)
These control arms are adjustable by using shims similar to these(which are
NOT
included):
10mm = 1deg of negative camber
These did not come from here, but these are what I purchased instead for my 996:
Cup Car Outer:
https://demonspeed.com/product/lower...996-cup-style/
Cup Car Inner:
https://tarett.com/products/lca-rubb...44757163475108
Shims are available from lots of places, including Demonspeed, Tarett, Rennline, eBay, Etsy...
OK, now that you know the possible risks, and you know you need racecar parts on your 996, go ahead and post below:
If someone is coming to Las Vegas and would like my previously installed front bumper trim to replace their 996.1 trim they are welcome to it. Only replaced since I was already removing the bumper to clean and replace old hardware. Not brand new looking but would be a big improvement over a faded original. Use a restoration product like Black Wow & it would look great. Would rather see someone make use of it than chuck it.
(trim on left) 996-505-553-04
I have some bare uprights to give away. I bought them for parts and stripped them.
Fronts r 2001 boxter. Drivers side is fine, passenger side the abs sensor hole is buggered up but can be repaired with a timesert.
Rear r 1999 966 units. Pass side is fine, driver side has 2 broken tabs that hold on the shield. I have the pices and it can be repaired.
All brake caliper mounting holes appear to be in good shape. I will include the slightly bent up shields.
U also have 4 - mk1 abs sensors. Operating condition unknown but they look fine.
I ran across these in my garage today......3 Napa Gold 1348 made in the USA filters from my 996 I sold about 6 years ago. If someone wants to pick up shipping charges, I'll send them out. I know I have more 996 stuff, so I'll post it up when I run across anything.
Pieces left over from the 4 (yes 4) clusters I used to get my manual swap dialed in. Lots of trial, error, learning, and $$.
Cover shipping�.or LONG SHOT�.if you have a set of (any colour but black) Tiptronic gauge faces, i�d like to work a deal.
Oddly enough, I sold two. Must be a common fault?!
I just managed to make one complete cluster on the kitchen island (tired of snow days) that I�d prefer to sell as a whole. The only parts left are what�s in the photos.
Here's a cylinder head without matching cam covers. (great for a table project or DIY at your own risk)
1999 3.4L 5 chain
Pressure tested in good order.
FREE
(taker pay shipping)
Maybe someone could use it to save an engine if they can figure out how by using non match cam covers.
this came with some other items i recently purchased, new, genuine Porsche, never been on a car, complete with instructions and hardware.
Free to the first person that wants it....
thanks
Steve J.
Correct!
I can’t believe I left out my favorite Boxster, the 986!
It should fit any of the 986 Boxsters.
They didn’t change the headlights until the 987.
But the bumpers may have changed.
I can’t remember.
Pair of rear bump stops. When I bought from AZ Autohouse, they say it came in each, so I ordered two. And I received 4! Here is new pair free, you only have to pay me actual usps shipping from 92101.
if you are selected, please post something 996 related to give away.
If your 996.1 is in need of a refresh in the plastic trim department-
Replaced all of mine on the front end. At take off the car had 42,000 miles, the parts are not perfect but present well for being original. There is some fading on the bumper cowl, I think some Black Wow restorer would be very helpful on that. Would be great replacements for a 996.1 owner out there that has very faded bumper trims or windshield cowl. Everything needed is included, and even the seal that connects to the windshield is in great shape and attached.
I�m in Las Vegas, NV a few blocks east of the strip. DM if you would like these for the low price of free to another enthusiast. 👍
Also have my OEM (non M030) springs available if anyone needs replacements.
CTA 2023 Transmission Mount Tool for manual transmission 996 and 997. I rented it out previously and it's been used about 3-4 times.
Threads on the M8x225mm bolts and nuts are stripped and bent -- would need to be replaced.
Free, just pay for shipping (~$20-25 in the con-US from 92677)
Long shot but would you still have one of the 996.2 6MT clusters (just the front half with the analog gauges)? My grey gauges are bubbling up and I�m exploring replacements. Thanks!
Just the bottom part in your first picture -- the white assembly with the gauge faces and needles (circled in the screenshot below). I'm hoping that by just swapping this in while keeping my car's original center display board, I will be able to retain the original mileage readout and have non-bubbly/misaligned gauges.
Do let me know. Thanks a ton!
I did find the one with the missing gauge, yours if you want it. Send me your address and give me a few days.
I'm still looking for the other one that has the full set. I cleaned up my garage....and now I can't find $**T!!
Just taking up too much space, now offered for free to avoid the landfill -- buyer pays S&H:
2003 C4S headers
Photos and previous link of them listed in the Marketplace:
https://rennlist.com/forums/market/1428808
I've got door cards for a 2002 C2 (base, no fancy speakers), they will need the compartment covers and one will need the gear mechanism.
I also have some worn out floor mats, C2 CD changer Bracket, and Amplifier Bracket.
All from a 2002 C2 Cab with the world-renowned Graphite Grey interior!
Located in Warner Robins, GA (1.5 hrs south of Atlanta on I-75)
Telephone Wiring Connector (from
https://www.rennclassic.com/product-...ring-connector
)
I'm no longer using this. The wiring has been cut a tad short, but still usable. Has constant power (red), switched power (blue), and ground (black).
Claim it here, and then shoot me a PM with your address.
I have a BUNCH of Porsche parts that need to be used (by someone else).
Porsche horns, 911 and 993 mirror base gaskets, 996 bumper buffers (rectangular plastic frames), and a 993 10 disc CD changer (and more! let me dig into the boxes)
I will update this listing tomorrow with part numbers and pics
I am looking for THAT green 996/997/986 shifter alignment tool.
Do you have one that you no longer need (I will send it back if you ever do...)
I just put a 997 shifter and FF shift right bearings in my 2003 C4S,
but I want to re-install the original shifter, note the shift feeling, then put the upgraded 997 shifter back in, and determine the difference.
(I know... a lot for "WHAT"?)
But I need a green shifter tool to do it.
Do you have one?
Thanks,
Paul
I asked on the 996 forum, the answer that I got was "not if you have the BOSE (MOST bus?) system".
I think the 1999 996 "might" have the plug for it (but not sure)
Paul
UPDATE:
I have that green shift alignment tool on the way.
Thank you.
I bid on a bunch of stuff at the L.A. Dismantler auction
This was the contents of one box
(I only wanted two good Stritone (911) horns)
If you want any of it send me a PM,
you can have it for the actual shipping cost.
(or pick up in San Mateo, Ca for free)

That's awesome. I wish I could have gotten some of that. Do they still have parts?
I would be more than stoked if these parts and the mirror gaskets were available. Let me know and I can send a shipping label. Thanks
Hello Otto, Yes, they will be yours!
(and a L/R set of 993 mirror gaskets)
Send me a PM and I will box them up, and get you size and weight.
As for the L.A. Dismantler auction, it WAS fun. I drove down from the Bay Area, filled my Cayenne to the gills with parts, and drove back, in one day...
They still had a ton of stuff (don't know how much was sold though) when I left.
I have no idea what ever happened to all the leftover parts...
Up for grabs 2 rads that look to be in real good shape. These came with my front end parts for a dismantler and i use cfs rads. One is a mahle and the other is nissens. Free but u pay the shipping.
Would either of these rads work as a center rad for a C4S? Maybe not typical, but self made connectors and so on... just thinking out of the box. Interested.
YMMV
Located in San Diego and must be gone by June 1st. Prefer pick up in downtown, but can ship at your expense.
Spoiler cover paint is sun beat and faded, but no tabs broken.
The metal deck lid has a dent and the left lip slightly pushed in (crease the paint a bit)
The plastic spoiler is missing hinges but the accordion is there including all of the clips and the metal bar not in picture.
Thanks for keeping this thread alive.
Hard to believe it’s still going over 7 years later.
I‘ll have to put up some parts soon.
I’m planning to clean up my garage soon and will have some spare parts to let go of.
If anyone would like a windshield cowl for a 996.1 I still have my original. Really hate to toss it if it can be of use to someone.
It's still in presentable condition and worth using if yours is really faded or warped. Has seal and caps too.
Located near Las Vegas Blvd on Flamingo if you're driving through.
Hey just lost one at the track. Just checking if anyone has an extra or 2? Also need the clamp.
i have a bunch of premium suspension parts for trade. TIA.
Huge TY to zmonsta for the exhaust tip hook up 🙏
Digging through my extra parts�
Have the complete Audio system available if anyone wants some of these parts and can take care of shipping LMK.
I thought I'd throw this out here because I think there a few air cooled guys here. New air cleaner and rubber sealing donut left over from my old car. Not sure why I still have it but I hate to throw it away. It's not really worth the trouble of listing it on Ebay or Craigslist.
It 100% fits a 1970 911T but pretty sure it fits some other years too. IIRC, it also fits some older Mercedes models. Free if you cover shipping from San Diego.
Well, my convertible is sold, but I have a few extra parts available. Here�s a set of calipers that I planned to refinish and replace they are rough.
if you�re interested in paying for shipping or sending me a label, I�m happy to send them to you.
I recently bought a car that came with 11 wheel centers that I don't want. Anybody who wants any or all of these, send me a few dollars to cover shipping and I will send them your way.
4 silver with gold emblems - brand new
4 chrome with gold emblems - fairly faded-looking emblems, chrome has light scratches and pitting
3 silver with black emblems - a scratch on 1 of them (left in photo) and there's only 3 of them total
