Looking good! If you do come down to a C&C swing by Simsbury and we can drive down together.

I think it's gonna look great. I like the side decals. The style and colors goes well on black. Wheels are gonna look superb. I noticed on the rendering the cup mirrors. Are you getting those installed? I'd like to do that as well. But Ruf mirrors are no longer available. Which ones are you going with and where did you get them?

Thanks guys. The wheels are a bit of a sore subject. Been waiting for them since January.
Sadly the mirrors are just part of the rendering. Thats on the to do list... Along with a glass out respray.. And id love to do a rwb widebody.

Yup, thats me. Been a very long wait, but I'm hopeful it will turn out as i had expected. Im in boston so ct c&c is a stretch, but we have a really great one my friends put on at the larz Anderson automotive museum. Really an awesome setting. Great park, and always some very cool displays in the museum

Congrats to you for electing to not run a 205/225 combo, and instead put some meat under those arches.

car is back from the shop. very happy with the way it turned out. time to order a new decklid. problem is i cant decide. your opinions welcome..


rsa- period correct, but kinda obnoxious. plus its not an rsa
ducktail- cant decide if i love it or hate it ona 64. not sure it works well with the lines but ive always liked them on other models.
no tail- just a sc decklid and a mesh style grille. clean, simple, shows off the silhouette, but kiinda boring.

any others i should consider?

Where are the pics?

I vote back to stock or ducktail. Also, I'm interested in your current spoiler for an experiment if you'd like to sell it.

will post pics when i have some that arent taken with my ipotato5. i might be the worst phone pic taker ever.


stock isnt an option. i absolutely hate the look of the stock 964 spoiler. i originally wasnt even considering a 964 solely because of that.. until i drove one.
and yea, id sell it cheap, as long as it doesnt get hacked apart when it comes off the car.

The PS Auto one still goes up and down, so you get the best of both worlds.
