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.

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

POST 6Original post

Does anyone read GT PORSCHE mag? well if you don't, you should get your hands on the April 07 issue...It has a great article on the 996 C4S... a few quotes "[C4S] looks set to be the most collectable 996 - even taking into consideration the 40th aninivarsary model." "and while there is a wide-hipped 997 C4S, it doesn't have the presence and visual impact of the 996 incarnation, doesn't ape the range topping turbo, somehow doesn't look quite as cool. The 996 C4S was the 911 the 996 should have been all along." Amazing!

POST 8Original post

NICE Cars guys, I need to get some new shots and play along, keep em coming!!!

Tim, did you happen to own a red CLK55 awhile back...around say 5-6 years ago? I meet up with you in Rocklin when you were having a blower installed on your 55. I had the black CLK430. Do you remember?

POST 56Original post

question. how did you paint your shift ****? did you remove the plastic piece to paint it? if so, how did you remove it? thanks in advance. mitch

POST 57Original post

Quote: It's actually quite easy. Get some blue painter's tape. Put a bag over the shift ****. spend about 30 minutes taping the parts you don't want paint. An exacto knife helps a lot. make sure you tuck the tape between the leather and the plastic. put on very thin 4 coats of yellow and 4 coats of clear coat. let dry in between and your done. If your ****, use a little thicker coats of the clear and sand in between.

Thats a worn out tire. How was the other rear tire. Your lucky it didn't go at the same time. Here is the wife's ride.

Quote: Thanks. I was'nt sure if you somehow removed the plastic or not. Did you use spray paint from a can or did you use a spray gun?

POST 61Original post

Quote: No need to take out the plastic. I used a spray can. wrap it up in a bag, stick the shifter in a box. Tape it down to the bottom of the box. spray it on your drive way, close it and bring it into the house for it to dry. http://www.automotivetouchup.com/spray_paint.asp Good luck.
