Sweet! Almost seems a shame to paint it.

From memory 75" but I'll get them to measure it on Friday and let you know.

Could you ask them if they could make a 73" wide version?
I'd be all over it!

Been a while since i've been on 993 forum and obviously missed this (not sure how). In any case... Nice!!

Regarding your fuel cell, not sure how many mounting points you're going to put on it, but I have the fuel safe pro cell from back in the day. It was bowing the floor down at the front mounting point. I just took out cell, "beat" floor back flat, and mounted piece of aluminum channel entire length of floor and put front mount point on it.

I've known other folks with similar cells and have had same issue.

lopro the car is expected to be finished by April. Yes, the plan is to make most if not all the body panels available for sale. I'll post more details when I have the pricing sorted out. Wheels and Motec wiring harness are due in any day now...

JoeMag thanks for the heads up about the fuel cell mounting. Mine will be carbon and use tabs that mount to the frame rails.

trophy I'm not sure of the width of my car vs. a factory RSR but will ask and let you know.

Front bumper is now finished and will go to Crawford to have a mold and new bumper made. The last of the welding/filing holes and grinding off excess tabs is being done this week. Then the tub will be blasted, prepped and everything painted.

nice work, I'm also curious about the width from a rsr and your car,

and why did you or recommended kelly mos you the gt3 cuts in your rear bumper instead of the solution from other teams and mike 5 or six vertical cuts in the rear bumper ? is there a big difference in drag reducing
