I have considered bumperette delete but I have actually grown to like them. It keeps the red and black colors running through the car, and I like the smaller turn signal/position lights. If I get a chance to delete the headlight washers, they will go away for sure, thanks for the suggestions.

You are right, if I got rid of the black accents, then I would consider painting the skirts, but I really like the red/black. I have always loved the look of red, white or yellow cars with black accents (wheels, trim, etc). Paul

Beautiful Car!

Beautiful Car!
The wheels are Porsche/BBS Sport Classic II, they are 2-piece wheels, so I took them apart and had the complete centers powder-coated black. The RS wing I sold on ebay was my original Better Bodies fiberglass wing. I just bought the entire RS aerokit from Gert Carnewal (very good value when you buy the entire kit together vs. individually). So I installed the factory RS wing along with the side skirts (I already had the factory splitters).

Mark & Darin are very 'hands-on' guys, I wonder if Teri Hatcher will bring her Porsche to Darin's shop?? Another Seinfeld/Porsche connection!
