Suncoast 997 Sport Pedal Set
My family was kind enough to give me a set of aluminum pedals for my recent birthday. The pedals they bought me
are the 997 Sport Pedal set from Suncoast Porsche. Here is a link to them on Suncoast. 997 Sport Pedal Set
I'm not sure who makes them, but I do not believe they are from Porsche as they don't carry a Porsche model number
on them or on the packaging anywhere. In fact, the packaging was only a simple black box. However, they were

Let's face it, there are times when you just can't prevent the installation of a front license plate, which unfortunately comes with irreversible damage to the nose of your car. For me, it was tourist delivery that made it necessary for my front bumper to be drilled. This wouldn't be so bad if they didn't just blow screws into the plastic, but that's what they do, and the tension from those screws distorts the plastic around the hole into a volcano like head.

Replacing the Cabin Air Filter (also referred to as the Pollen Filter) is possibly the easiest maintenance task to perform on a 987. I'll demonstrate this task on my 2007 Cayman S.
There are aftermarket filters available, but I like to use OE parts for my Porsche. The part number of the factory Porsche filter is 997.571.229.01. It's available at any Porsche parts department. I usually keep one on hand.

Properly breaking in your new brakes is essential to their continued performance and reliability, yet it's something that few people really understand. I've recently followed a very informative thread where several of our members were trading some pretty good information on this topic. I found the information was so valuable, that I thought it would be a good idea to archive it here as an article.

I noticed the Porsche Sun Visor Cover-Up decals while reading a posting right here on the Boxster Register...as suggested I found them on eBay...they arrived today...easy to install and a good upgrade to cover that unsightly government warning label.
