Hi guys I posted a thread about 1 month ago regarding body shops in the chicagoland area. I was referred to A&L autobody. They did excellent work. Thanks for the referral. I bought a replica Ruf front bumper with turbo S air ducts, Painted side rocker panels body color, had the rear bumperette deleted and re-painted. Hope you guys like the pics. Sorry I didn't take a pic of the bumper. I will do it when I get a chance.

Who makes the replica front? Is it fiberglass? How much? Looks nice.

The front bumper is made by better bodies. It is a fiberglass carbonfiber blend. It is actually pretty reasonable. The price was $900. I always wanted this front bumper but thought that 3000 was a little steep for the the real Ruf bumper. So I started looking for alternatives. I was looking for a turbo s front lip or gt2 style front lip at first (Those two lips cost about 650 to 700 each). When I came across this bumper at this price I couldn't pass it up. Better bodies also has the turbo S ducts with the fog lights. Couldn't be happier with the customer service and delivery time. Bumper came in about 1 week. The wheels are called porsche AL cup from RH alurad. I bought the wheels from GMP performance. The size are 19 x 8.5 in the front and 19 x 11 in the rear. Thanks for the compliments. I couldn't have built my dream car if it wasn't from this forum.

Looks great, Woosah! We need to go for a sunny Saturday drive on my favorite route into southwestern Wisconsin. About 320 miles door-to-door.

Yes, the main towns I hit are; Gratiot, Darlington, Blancharville, New Glarus and Janesville. I stop in Janesville and gas up with 93 octane, pure gas no alcohol, and then take the highway home.

That car looks awesome and the wheels really set it off.
We can buy 98 octane at any station by the way
