Eric, I thought you had sold this car. Still holding on to it? I have the factory turbo S bumper and I have no issues with it either. Its fiberglass molded on to PU just like the Fitzgerald setup. I don't see any problems with my setup either.

Do you still drive that beast on the to street or track only now?

Miles,

The car does see some time on the streets...but it is a little stiff to be used as a daily driver. That is one of the reasons I have kept the A/C...also it is nice to have your own "cool down" laps on the track. I believe that I did make Rick's job much harder by keeping the A/C in.

But, he kept a smile in his face. Still likes to rib me a bit, though!

From the factory, the vent was mounted on the outside like Jason's, wasn't it?
The inlet duct on the bumper is integrated into the bumper cover and apparently the factory also used a fiberglass insert - I didn't know that Raj. That's reassuring. But the outlet vent on the hood is mounted on the outside like Jason's.

Eric, I thought you had sold this car.
I sold my red 968 that was a TS look a like. The car pictured is my race car which now has all those same body parts and hopefully turbo power this winter.

Hey Eric,
I really like the way the nose of your car looks! What have you done with the space where the driving light used to be? Are they also intake vents?

Miles - those are brake ducts made by GT-Racing. They are a little rough for use on a nice street car. Plus they are so deep you need to remove the headlight buckets to really use them.
