Great shots! The only "shots" missing are the obligatory waterfront shots you see so often in C&D Magazine off of the causeway in Miami....(it feels like every 5th photoshoot is held there)

Really nice. I like the detail you put into the rear speaker shelf. What is that? Thanks.

Thanks guys...really a testament to the shop (C2Design) that did the work and the countless hours of emails, telephone calls, and sit downs talking about detail after detail. We just did not want to ruin a classic by doing too much but on the other hand we wanted to freshen it up to standards we are accustomed to today.

I truly am in awe of this car...I barely turn on the aftermarket audio system I put in...rolling the down the windows and listening to the cacophony of mechanical noises is definitely a high for me.

PS @LexVan...we deleted the rear seats and installed 2 10" JL Audio speakers in that shelf area. We also deleted the rear speaker shelf speakers. I didn't want an obtrusive box just sitting there or exposed speakers in a fancy fiberglass enclosure...1) it would look stupid in a classic 2) any schmo walking buy can only get tempted to take something that isn't their's...the speakers vent below the shelf and the JL amps sit behind the seat...so if you walk by you don't really see anything.

Thanks. Again, very nice. The stitching looks great in that area....very factory.

@LexVan...C2Design was fabricated from ABS, painted gloss black, the Porsche logo was added, then cleared. It is actually screwed into the rear rather than just a pressure fit or glued on.

AMGfan, ohhhh, it almost looked carbon fiber to me from the pics. That's why I thought Marcus did it.

Very pretty on exterior I love the rear bumerette delete not everyone does that; this isn't a euro car though right?

and the interior?.......I wouldn't let fellow Rennsters actually inside the car......Can you say Pavlovian dogs?....they will just ruin it.
