It's done (I think)!

[Yellowjersey]

I've personalized my ride with some customizations and I think I'm done:

• Carbon fiber:
  • Front Lip
  • Side Skirts
  • Rear Diffuser
  • Rear Spoiler
  • Steering Wheel w/perforated leather, blue stripe at 12 o'clock and contrast blue stitching
  • CF B-pillars
• Tinted windows
• Full-body PPF
• Windshield, Pano roof and rear windows protected with ClearPlex and clear UV protection
• Mission-E wheels color-matched to Ice Grey
• De-badged

How did you get the Turbonite emblem on the steering wheel? I thought that was a J1.2 Turbo included feature? I already did my hood emblem and would like to do the steering wheel because my 4S wheels came turbonite from the factory, so I should have all match.

Very nice! You could put on a black Turbo emblem to the back... it is a Turbo after all...

You have to change the airbag - the 992 airbag fits.

I've thought about it and I may in the future. It came with the black nameplates and I still have them. If I do put it back on, it would just be the Turbo emblem.

Can you share details on how you did that mod? Does it require PIWIS to recode anything?

Nice! I always applaud people customizing their Taycan to their own preferences. My customization preferences are somewhat different, but still overlap a little. The overlapping parts are tinting the windows and monochrome Porsche shield (I did mine before Porsche discovered turbonite) and debadging the car (did that from the factory, removed the Turbo badging from the car and the headrests). I did not do other esthetic upgrades (like CF or PPF), but I did additional functional upgrades:

• Tune the power of the car to allow launch control+ power at any time
• Added EURO style tail lights (amber turn signals, no shared stop/turn signals)
• Enabled full matrix headlights functionality (stock disabled in USA)
• Added full radar/laser countermeasures (quad radar directional radar detector, front&rear laser detection and jamming, fully integrated with the car's displays and buttons)

Only mentioning the above in case you didn't know these were an option, so perhaps not done yet? ;-)

I once told someone that his souped up Carrera (2005) vs my Carrera (same model same year) was unnecessary as the car was perfect when it left the factory.

Black door handles?

Well done! A lil nip and tuck makes it your own. I almost got white on white myself, but needed the volcano grey!! But still I love the tweaks

I've thought about tuning but haven't decided yet.
I'll look into enabling the full matrix headlights.
I too have added and integrated the Uniden 9RW laser jammer/radar detector.

There are a ton of video's out there on changing the airbag. I don't remember which one I used, but you have a multitude to choose from. As a side note, the 992 steering wheel and airbag are identical.
