Wow Vic, looks like you did a pretty nice job of getting that bondo to blend in...Im glat you removed that hack testarosa body kit thing. Ill post a picture of one of my sweet old 944 to avoid being dickheaded, and to once again hear the vociferous sound of me being awsome... it could have used some of your body work skills.

I'm sorry what did you say? I couldn't hear you over the sound of me being AWESOME!!

Nice shots Vic, we need to get both cars out there, maybe a bunch of us and do a photo shoot.

What guys, I'm not awesome enough to get the secret photo shoot location?

Even though a mass photo shoot would be cool with all of the p-cars, i think we need to plan a roadtrip instead...

Hey Ryan, where'd that one go to?

Talk to you guys soon!

Hey Vic, the car looks great!

I think Kevin, myself, and maybe some other people are headed to the dyno sometime next week if you want to have an excuse to bring the car out. Let me know.

I like a lot! Lets get some rear pics on here (the cars not you guys)!

Mirror mirror on the wall who's got the widest (see most badass) tires of them all?

Looks good Kevin. You didn't ditch the Hoosiers did you?

Nope, they are bagged and in the basement like you suggested. They will go onto my c2 wheels next year.

We steamed the wheels, but they still didn't come out as good as I hoped. No biggie as I will just have them redone this spring. Thanks again for the great deal Skip.

It's probably worth calling Fikse to see what they recommend. I believe they recomend Wenol polish.

I spoke with them. They recomend Wenol on the lips, but only Simple green on the centers. Nothing can be done with the centers as they are just clear coated. They told me that if I sent the wheels to them to refinish they could only replace the centers with new ones and wouldn't even attempt to fix the centers as the coating is that hard to strip and get back right again.

My wheel shop says that they can reproduce the speed silver option that Fikse offers, so I may go that route. Haven't decided yet what route I want to take. I also had the shop repolish the lips and they came out perfect again.

My buddy, Jeff, was driving in the picture of my car passing that 928. You can see the guys hand still out the window. This car has 400 consistent wheel hp, especially on race gas. I love these cars. Driven most everything, and always come back to these cars.
