OMFG!!! Your car looks amazing! I'm sure these cars will go up in value later since he won't be able to do many more as he gets up in years.

I shall say my good-byes to my left nut now......

All I can say is wow. That's one MEAN machine my man. Kudos for going for it and I believe it's paid off. Thumbs up!

It takes true talent to cut, install, and fit AFTER painting. Amazing project!!

That is amazing. I always liked the 993 GT2, but this car takes it to a few levels higher visually.

Just when I thought the RWB style was not for me, I stumble across this. You've now seriously tempted me to consider doing a similar treatment to my 930. Great job!!!

Leave your 930 alone, it’s to clean to let someone/anyone cut it up. If you want to do this get a high mile N/A 964 or 993, RWB kit and turbo it. You still need to let me drive your Ruf bty.

Hey guys,

I am very happy with how many of you enjoyed watching the transformation of my 993 to the RWB.

A few have asked about a driving report and what it feels like with lots more rubber under the fenders. Here is what I can tell you, I drove it home a few weeks back in 5 o'clock Friday rush hour traffic which didn't allow for much feel other than my torn up clutch knee begging for an automatic.

Since then work and other issues have restricted my driving to exactly none. So, it looks like I will have to post later this month on a driving report.

Thanks for all the interest.

Your car makes me want to cut up my 964 with 130k miles on the clock.

this is one mean looking 993! its different....but I still like it! I see you have plans for engine mods in the future, but I have to believe it is pretty lethargic with no power increases as of now...

Amazing!! Just found this post, thanks!

Love all the RWB's! and he's developing a big fan base and followings I've notice. Such a interesting builder.

So how the RWB-993 going for you? Anything good/bad to report? You must be getting lots of gawking driving it!

Check out VOSSTEK`S 930 Super Turbo Ultra Wide Body kit its a Rauh Welt look alike[/SIZE][/COLOR], it is made of the same material and is just as wide. It is very affordable ($20.000.00 less than RWB), it looks AWESOME!!! They have 3 style of front bumpers (C 2/4 look, RS and RSR), 2 style rockers (C 2/4 look and RSR), 2 style rear bumpers (RSR and C 2/4 style). They also have 12 different style wings here are 2 links: https://www.facebook.com/BetterBodiesUSA
