Default Cars Back from Body Shop...Teazers!

Resprayed mirrors, splitter, gtracing rear bumper, underbody diffusers resprayed, headlight duct swapped back to stock, 968 wing rebolted and sprayed...heres a few small teasers, more to follow. gotta go drive!

I dont want to hear about the exhaust, its getting a new one next month. SFR 3"..hopefully Tim can make it a lil bit shorter as to fit better under the new bumper

very nice.

that 3" SFR exhaust could be dangerous. The sound already is addicting enough, I don't think with that exhaust I could ever stand to let off the throttle.

Yep... I got it for you if you need it. How soon do you want it sent to you, I will have it boxed up and ready to go out in the mail tomorrow.

Do some sort of trade against your ebc?

Well, make sure you include your address and do it early enough in the morning, and I will have it in the mail tomorrow. Its boxed up and just waiting for a label. Regular mail okay, or do I need to send it priority?

Aside from the black bumperettes, what is the difference between your bumper and stock?

I tell you guys, if I owned a 944/951 S2 bridge spoiler and euro type rear bumper or what Sam has done would be tops on my list for upgrades/improvements, these soooo update the look!

Ken, the bumper is fiberglass and doesn't stick out as far in back. Its modeled after the euro bumper. Not exactly DOT legal, but with the engine mods that Sam has in mind for his car, I doubt he is worried about getting rear ended, unless I happen to be running behnd him... lol

I have the mirrors and bridge spoiler for my 951, and just need the 968 handles and the 968 CS seats, and then all I have to do is pay someone about $4000 to make my car look as nice as Sam's.

Sam, looks great!

Now I gotta pick up the phone and order the rear bumper from GT Racing. Damnit! Thanks a lot.
