Meteor Grey 3.2
I travel a lot for work but before this current trip I was able to get a couple of things finished on the 911 I have been wanting to for a while. I removed the tail and got a used deck lid which I had painted to match. (I still have the OEM lid and tail that came with the car from new). I sourced a pair of the narrow European bumperettes and had the extra holes in the Aluminum Carrera bumper welded shut, then the bumper re painted. Lastly I got my R/R 8" Fuch back on the car. Meteor Grey is a very interesting color, it looks blue in some pics but is actually a warm gray. It can play tricks on you.
A couple of things left, I need to sort out the pattern on the remaining 3 Fuchs, the PO painted a bizarre pattern.
The car is sub 75k miles. OG paint, and pretty much stock for now. Its a bit dirty in the pics because this is right after a five day trip my GF and i took, but she cleaned up lovely.

Beautiful. Love the color.
Looks great sans tail. Much cleaner looking. As a kid I loved the turbo tail. Now I prefer the Carreras without them.
Your doing a fine job as custodian for this Carrera!

Keep it at the speed limit. A 911 at high speed (north of 90 or so) is not fun, in my book, without a tail. On a Porsche 911, they are absolutely functional. I've got Ruby's stock lid-even painted it with the rest of the car in '02, but I doubt it will ever find it's way back on.

whoa, that's a very nice color.
I agree that the tails on a 911 are functional, unlike say.....an aftermarket Honda tuner tail.
But aesthetically, to each his own.
