I had my black 993 estimated for a front end respray here in Portland and they quoted me $1,300. That's the whole front, to the mirrors.
I guess I better jump on it soon, since you inspired me with these gorgeous photos.
Thank$.

Talking Sweet!

Save your money. You don't have to put anymore skirts on her (too pimped out already)!

Thanks for all the compliments!
I'm trying to get the front wrapped in roadblock protective film ( http://www.autobahndint.com/home.html ) still this week.

Thanks! I have a Canon 20D with some good glass. (Sigma 10-20, Canon 24-70 2.8L, Canon 70-200 2.8L etc.)

Yet, my 95% DE car looks nothing like the one Matt (Jdstefa) bought...

And I do vacuum my interior every once in a while too:

Dammit Juha, I'm working on it! Mosport on the 26th....



Your car looks great .

WOW!!

I made that comment regarding your purchase because a lot of people were against you claiming that the condition of your car was normal for a DE car. NOT TRUE! (as you can clearly see from my 95% DE car)

Allthough, I'd rather have a car like yours with some cosmetic things to fix BUT with a rebuild motor and great upgrades than a stock car with who knows when it needs a top end rebuild etc. Spending all that $$$ to get the car where you want it to be and then learn that you need to drop another 10k to rebuild the heads or something would just suck.
Cosmetic **** is easy to fix, allthough I understand the psychological effect of receiving a car with a lot of cosmetic errors...

Good luck with the refurb Matt! I bet it's gonna look even better than my car when you're done with it!
