I have N.E.V.E.R been more excited seeing a UPS truck pulling into my cul-de-sac and came to a stop in front of my house! :ROFLMAO:
Looks good. Can't wait to see that installed. Did you have the engraving on the top?
 
Mine arrived today. Took about 15 minutes to install. Really easy; hardest part was pulling the original shift knob off (I ended up using a wrench with lots of protection between the wrench and the shift knob rotating locker piece). I love how it looks now!

@Edge767 HUGE tranformation bro! Looks really awesome. Down with PDK stickman. I am so tempted with getting mine installed but with some crunch time at work that resulted in 10-12 hours every day this week, I don't trust myself sitting in my boxster with either a plier or a wrench. I'll prob. break something. So, while it's killing me that I can't get mine installed yet until this wkend, I am equally excited that you all got this done so quickly. A few folks on other forums have shared theirs also.

Here's one on a 2018 Macan Turbo.

Those look great!

It’s surprisingly easy without tools on the 718 and takes not much time at all. Do it!!!
 
UPDATE July 30: Seller will increase list price by 15% when their new line ships. If we pre-order by Aug 7, we will get current list price plus group discount
I have a manual transmission. Asked Euro Impulse about it when I saw this group buy last month. It wasn't available yet but "soon". Just checked. They said it'll be up for pre-order tomorrow and the smooth leather option should be shipping by end September (I didn't ask about the perf'd leather or aluminum release dates).

They said you might be setting up a group buy for that as well and will be extending the same 20% discount. Are you planning to do that? If so I'll add to your list. If not, I'll pre-buy on my own.

@Kor 446 yeah in the process of getting group set up. I will DM you
 
Do they offer sapphire blue stitching?
We've got another group buy being organized. When I asked about stitching, they don't have much, and none is OEM. But they would use any thread that the buyer sent to them.

We need just a couple more takers to generate the discounts (15% for 5 to 9 buyers, 20% if 10 or more).

Resurrected group buy
 
Did you guys get your shifter knobs yet?

I reached out to a different vendor - Sportshifters - who are famous for their manual shift knobs and it turns out they also have a PDK knob in development. Their product is very high end.

Still don’t see a pdk option on their site. They must still be working on it?
