BWE Steve, that's a good shot of your car with Anthony's! ...
Thanks onboost. All 3 of us (BadBoys1 too) got some really nice pictures as the sun went below the tree line, all the shadows appeared, and all the other people & cars dispersed the grounds.
Have fun with that Turbo S tribute. Sounds like fun!!

Sounds cool.
If I had circus money my car would already be an "S" replica. It leans that way now except I didn't gut the interior, strip the chassis and add those cool vents (yet)
S splitter, wing, steel vents added. Number of small fitment issues corrected and full window -out repaint w/new rubber etc..
Fresh dash recover with deviated stitching, alcantara headliner, leather and alcantara Carrera door panels, seats, and rear seat delete with Turbo stitched into the carpet.
Engine & suspension were modded by TPC sometime ago.
Fully polished 3.6 wheels.. I think he got a really good deal on them as they were almost new, still clean on the backside.
I'll post a few pics when I find them again..

Its been fun and somewhat amusing as well. He get's pissed because he feels there has been not enough movement.. but its usually because he shows up with more parts/money and wants to make changes or additions that cause disassembly of something that's previously been assembled.. and yes, we've sat down with him and drawn-up a plan/design of what he wants. Out the window!
Its fine however, at least we have an understanding that all mods will be tasteful and nothing gaudy!

Where were you able to find an S rear wing?
Where did you find metal vents?
What are you doing for seats? Using replicas of the Recaros or using Pole Position seats?
IMO, these three components are almost like unicorns.
Any leads would be appreciated.

What year S are we talking 92 or 94? I believe he will have a hard time sourcing a real S wing although Mark S said he might have found the original manufacturer to make 94's up. I still have mine which I believe is the only one to still exist but the big problem is sourcing the shrouds that are different for the turbo S wing vs the stock wing. Although the 92 S wing is quite nice.
Jack Ford from Euro pros has been working on my car and about 75% completed
Front splitter and Foglight from Techart, S wing Leichtbau (copy version), steel vents and Speedline wheels(from Porsche dealer), Recaros Position. New rubber, gasket etc..
Fresh dash recovers with red stitching, new headliner, S Carrera door panels, and rear seat delete with Turbo red stitched into the carpet. Here a few pictures.

Hchann, that is going to be nice.
Were you tempted to remove the sunroof during the re-paint?
Are you going to do any engine mods?
I love those seats. Are they the Recaro replicas?

Mike Levitas from TPC Racing did a full rebuild and adding some goodies to the engine "while in there" with a JRZ suspension few year ago.
Jack did a full restoration including removed the sunroof to replaced the new cables, seals and for the Recaros Position seat, I bought it used from the guy who has retired from racing then re-upholstery to match two tone interior.

Chan, glad to see you here.. and thanks for posting some pics, much better than the ones I have! Ahhh...maybe because I've been busy working on your car instead of taking lots of pics?
Someone asked early about the vents, factory from dealer, about 10" x 10" section, welded-in and metal finished.
