Are you talking about the center, red reflector? The one that stretches from red tail-light to red tail-light? Yipes. I disagree. Leave it as is. This car will look PERFECT!

Default Tail lense

Or you can do this. I seperated the lense and laid pinstripe paint into the " Porsche" emblem on the inside. It turned out great and I have yet to see another 993 with it. Yes I know, the purest hate it. They'd hate alot of the things I've done to my car.Name:  image.jpg

No worries guys. Zero chance of messing with the exterior any more. May do a few things to the interior after a little while, but for now SHE IS DONE.

Had to order new fender linings since the Gemballa skirts required the originals to be cut. Will be ready for pickup on Monday. (Hopefully)

Looks awesome! I hope you kept the blue interior rather than switching to black

I did. Went with black carpet and covered the console, upper and lower dash in navy leather.

Looks real nice. I think it would nice to have an extra panel in the back painted white just to mix the car up when you get tired of it. Sort of like swapping out wheels to keep the car fresh. My $0.02

Leaving them black for now. They are perfect so I don't want to spend the $ . Year or two down the line is more likely.

Sounds good. I love white cars with bright wheels - I think it makes the paint pop more!

I can't wait to see how the leather dash came out. That's going to give it a great finishing touch in the cockpit.
