I love the final product, just so aggressive in every way.

For those who have actually touched the body panels from RWB, what is the quality like? Is it abs plastic or fiber-reinforced? Fit and finish once installed? What about the fender flares...are they bonded and riveted?

Would love to see more build photos!

Man, that event seems to have been quite a blast. Two big names (Nakai and Magnus) over a 993.

Keep the creativity up and remember style is subjective. Do what feels right on this build. After all, it is you who is putting forth the money and sweat into YOUR creation.

Enjoy the 993 and show it off to the rest of World. You'll be amazed to find how awesome it is to make the day of a young enthusiast. I know because I once was one of em'.

It's all about the SpG (Smiles per Gallon)!

The entire wheel is hand brushed and then shot with a charcoal powdercoat clear over the raw aluminum

build video is currently being worked on. We had a full production video and photography team documenting the entire build.

Here are some more build pictures of Rauh Welt Los Angeles now featured on Super Streets online webpage
