Sorry I obviously got lost in the bumper / WTB discussions, here they are.

Shifter of the 993 GT2 Evo was used in racing, flanged directly to the gearbox
Quick, precise shifting, cool looking.... but, vibrations, noise, odor .... as I said racing!

Even Porsche's chief designer, Michael Mauer likes retro touches on a 964

Fabie Abreu did an amazing job with my backdate project.

I like what you did with the rockers. That is one of my biggest issues with most backdates on a 964. It usually makes them look fat in the middle like the Singers.

I wish they would let us build garages like that by me. A garage by code here requires a step of at least 6" a self closing fire proof door and a 2 degree pitch to the floor.

Fabie worked hard on developing his rockers. I agree that it really helps the look of the car with the wide body.

Love the fabric idea on the center console and door cards (and Recaro seat logo!):

^^^ Houndstooth has become quite popular. I was at Stable the other day and they have a Recaro that can be ordered with Houndstooth centers. Kind of reminds me of my first 928 with the Pasha fabric and black. I couldn't get in the car if I was hungover the fabric started to move LOL.

The second picture must have been earlier since the door cards were still black.

Wide body helps a bit, however we think you better show your pipes. Non of our 964 backdates gets rockers!
