x50,
Wow, your car just keeps evolving and you're getting a Fisker designer to to come up with a custom styled front. You've got my attention to say the least.

jim, you know me, I'm a 5 decades+ hollywood refugee from shoe biz, errr.. show biz but NO he's not designing a FRONT for me so much as he said he'd do a mockup! to help me w a rendering so when i.. well wait. maybe he IS helping me "design" but thats just colors etc. the front i'm going with is that simple 997 TA gt front w led's IF i can make it all happen affordably. we shall see. it was his offer he is NOT designing me anything! i cant afford that sh*t LOL

but yeah, guys done recent aston db9's special one offs and is now w fisker himself on a detriot project?! i didn't know they did anything there any more, i think it is actually gm connected. i wouldn't know the fisker guy from adam but i too am impressed. that's like hanging with elon musk! lol.

plus i'm getting that vintage mini honda from him! it's my x'mas present to myself. that and painted calipers lol

Ha... I have some GT3 Cup uprights that raise it to about roof height.. but they are just "too much"

Actually thinking about paint matching the wing and leaving the uprights and end plates black.

I know it's not for everyone but it's what I was going for. thx

Interesting how about 30% of the respondents (albeit in a small sample) have an X50. I don't recall the production numbers but I'd guess X50 were a lower percentage than that?
