Surprised you haven't added a few mirror tiles to the floor!...............or is that on the 'Jobs To Do' list!

I love those wheels on a widebody 993 (my favorite). Car looks awesome, any thoughts on euro front signals or bumperette delete?

I like the mirrors,....I bet you gotta kill the headlights upon entry at night.

You did the right thing with those wheels, Chuck... of course I'm biased.

As a side note, I just replaced my rear PS2's. The OEM tire for the 11" rears is 295/30/18 (payed a dear price too, ~ $400 a piece). It looks like the 285's fit really nicely too... I guess the ~1/2" less in width makes little difference.

Anyhow, the car looks great. Happy motoring!

Chuck,

You reminded me of what I did in Summer 2005.

Looks great Chuck! Keep us posted on the red belt installation. Where'd you buy them? That's next on my list.

Gert got back to me today for that wheel and hub in a 365MM size in Classic Grey.

Price is 1620 Euro or $2,424 shipped!

Nice sw!! I do have a question about the emblem on the airbag......read that it will turn into a missle if it goes off? So is it safe?

Thanks. In the future I would like to do the front end. But it will be awhile.
