Really nice handy work for what you're doing. I just now looked through all the pics and noticed that the front spoiler parts don't fit very well together. Especially the corners to the front grill seem very off. Also, the rear fender extensions to the lower valance doesn't have a perfect match either. Maybe you're still adjusting it as you took the pics.
Quite the transformation of the car. I like the duck tail better too. You have some nice taste to make it look like a real racer. Are you planning on engine mods too?
Did you paint everything in your workshop, w/o a booth? How did the paint come out, it's hard to tell from the forum pictures.
Nice documentation. Good luck with it.

Left the car with Northwest Auto Salon here in Seattle for the day to give the car a final polish.. great group of guys who specialize in detailing high-end cars; http://www.northwestautosalon.com/
I highly recommend that you Seattle locals give them a try for your 993 or even your daily driver..

Ah - nice work. I'm really liking those wheels.
The duck tail goes nicely - but I would prefer the GT2 rear wing.
At any rate - that's a lovely car man. Congrats.

That looks truly fantastic and very unique. Reminds me of a '72 RSR.

Thatcher, Your car looks so nice, you won't want to drive it! How about a group of us meet up at Redmond Town Center around 7:45 a.m this Saturday? The weather is supposed to be nice, we could even hit some tennis ***** around.

Wow, absolutely love your car man! I like the ducktail alot, too. Only other tail I would consider would be the basic RS. Don't change a thing and be sure to post here on Rennlist first if you ever plan on selling it.
