Started on relocating my coilpack and fuel pressure regulator off of the walls so figured I would remove all the extra studs and brackets







And some suspension pieces back from the powdercoater

Only interior photo I have is this one



Interior is pulled apart now as I'm getting ready to do an RS carpet kit with a bunch of rennline goodies. Seats are being done to match the panels and I'm going with a CAE shifter.

Haha yeah this isn't fun at all. Luckily I'm doing RS carpet so I don't need to make it squeaky clean.

While I have it to this point I figured I'd loom all the wires with braided wrap. What a nightmare.

Had my buddy make a oil cooler spacer



Got the catch can all mocked up so now sending some stuff off to powder to get this wrapped up and on to body work and paint.



What was once a cluster of open wires is now wrapped and tucking nicely under the rear panel



Speaking of said body work I bought these skirts which weren't the same brand as the flares so they needed some tweaking









Will tackle the other one tomorrow. Hoping to primer the bay tomorrow as well.

Love it. This was the first 993 I ever drove. It was at an autocross and I got FTD. Love that it's taken on a cool second life under your watch.

Flares needed to be pulled down about 3/4". Now they stay level with the rear bumper and match to skirts perfectly.



Started getting into that body work. This ****s messy haha



Last piece came to finish up the oil cooler. Just need to find a good spot to mount it
