yes you can post pics without being a member...I think I stated that above...it is very easy....

"yes...go to "go advanced" click on manage attachments...you can upload pics from your computer to the thread....i think there is a limit though...then you will have to become a member to get more space...(not sure though)"

Ok 944turboman

Here's three 944t's for your bump.

That's Dean's (ringo951), Scott's (ELLSSUU) and my dad's (951and944S) cars from left to right. Two 87's with an '86 in the middle....

And one from the other day after he modded the splitter with 996 techart style middle and 993 RS clubsport type side wing end plates (moulded)

Yeah, he does them.
His and the car in the middle a few pics up, Scott's '86 Arena Red car.

And yes, you have to repaint.
Somebody on here said they did their and didn't repaint but I don't see how exposed metal would not need to be refinished....?
Both cars above have polished aluminum ducting too...

I've seen it done two times, basically he lays wide masking tape covering the entire area.
Next, depending on the width of the vent, he draws a center line horizontally across the front then uses that line to center a (in this case) two inch circle, draws them with a compass.
There's one circle drawn at each end of the two vents. The he connects the tops of the circles with a pencil line and a straight edge.
Next, right at where the point of the compass was when making the circular pencil marks at each end he taps a small center punch mark (x4).
Next you use a 2 inch METAL holesaw and cut out the four circles.
Carefully connect the circles following the straightedged pencil marking left on the tape that you drew earlier with the tool of your choice.
He uses a super thin cutting wheel on an air motor.
To finish, he cleans up the lines with a small fine flat file then removes the tape grid.
Prime, block sand, seal, paint.....

The ducting is another story.....<lol>
