Burma, I kinda knew these dudes. He was a good friend of my mechanic and I would on my spare time shuttle Lambos, souped up BMWs, and the 911TT between his shop and the other shop in NY. What a job eh? LOL I loved it.

^ Your car is amazing. I remember seeing you post pictures once and I searched later for them and couldn't find them. That interior looks great! Is that your head unit where the ash tray used to be? What are you going to do with the extra space?

Did you have to do anything with the fenders, or were they left alone?

The entire rear had to be cut. It was cut out exactly where the 968 bumper meets the metal. If you take a real 968 and take the bumper off it will have a cut out for the bumper. I did the same to mine. So yes you have to not only cut the fenders but cut the entire light panel out and replace with new sheet metal.

In the place of the ashtray I had Jeager make me a custom piece so that I could put my XM controller there.

Glad you like the pics. By this time next year this car will be supercharged and hopefully putting down about 300 or 275 at the wheels. I bought a supercharger setup from somebody on Rennlist and its already tested and ready to go. :O)
