In the spirit of the last few posts of this thread I'd like to donate some parts to the cause.

A Porsche Classic feather duster, a tickle stick if you will. Not OEM as they'd run out so aftermarket?

Classic Porsche Nick.

Although Porsche Classic obviously do get aftermarket suppliers to manufacture some of their parts don't they.

Wheel nuts.
They’re soft alloy (hats off to Porsche for minimizing un-sprung weight) so it’s no surprise to discover they get worn.
Rounded edges, flaking paint and corrosion are common.

Mine were too far gone to try and restore so I simply bought a fresh set.
