Mike, did you fill in the side marker lights on your bumper cover or is that a euro cover? Looks great either way, I can't see any signs that it was filled in or any ghost image of the old hole where the lens was.

*Damn proud to be owner of a timeless, evolutionary marvel! These cars still maintain that supercar look, feel and perform above par- over a similar period Ferarri, at Ford Focus prices! Keep evolution alive for this Porshe!

I'd say I'd help, but I didnt do my clutch job. I was down with a back injury and was told by my doctor not to go near my car, so I had a local shop I trust do it for me. As for seeing the car, I'm usually out in Buffalo a fair bit

They are filled, the bumper cover is a US Spec Fiberglass one from GT Racing. I've been meaning to put the euro side markers on but just havent gotten to it. I need to wire those and the city lights in the high beams up still.

Some of the parts are off Dave's car, yes.

Dilberto, thanks!

Kokeln has it on their website but no price is listed. You might want to contact them directly.

I've called Kokeln in the past, you can order from them directly. IIRC the subframe is $2200, but I might've forgotten since I talked to them over the summer.

Lindsey sells it (along with most other Kokeln parts). Retails for $2400 and weighs in at 50 lbs.

Would someone mind explaining what the benefits are from running this with just coilovers over not running this with coilovers? TIA

GT Racing sells a lexan hatch, I got mine used from a friend. Thanks Jake and Michelle, it was a tough decision to spend the cash, but I think it'll be worth it in the end.

man its great to see someone enjoying and modifying their car. all i see nowadays is people trying to sell theres because of financial crisis and problems. this gives a little more hope for 944 owners everywhere who are struggling keeping there cars running (i e= me lol).
