Why are you repainting the whole car ??

Riad

He's not, only the passenger side and top... the rest of the car is speed yellow.

Well I originally wasn't going to paint the entire car but after some further consideration, scratches, dents, chips etc. etc...... I actually started out with the front end and decided to upgrade to the Aero Kit and then it went from there. I figured it would just be better to pay the price now and enjoy the benefits of being 100% happy with the results. The car has been sitting (painted) in the shop since last Friday and I going to let it cure until Monday when I have given Raj and his crew the "go ahead" to start color sanding and buffing.....

This car should be complete to take out Friday or before…..

I was able to get to the shop yesterday and take a couple more shots. They are in the last days with this car of mine. They just put the windshield back in..... The side windows are next while the final rub down takes place.....

Eli, did you check the front passenger door/fender area yet? Looks like a problem to me.

Eric,

I asked about that too when I went to see the car "good eye"

They still need to remove the fenders once again and realign the doors (doors, fenders, lights, glass and interior was removed during this job!). I was a little taken when I first saw this but after the explanation I was at ease...

Raj: in Culver City is doing the work and works mainly on the 996. He’s the man to go to if you’re looking for a wide body conversion!!!!

Oh yah, One last thing! The wheels have been sold as of yesterday....

I'm still debating on using the set of 19" HREs I have...... For now it's going to be the Porsche 2-piece 10 spokes.....

Well here it is...... After some time I finally get to pick up my car tomorrow!!!!

First off let me say a big "Thank You" to Raj of Venice Collision Experts..... You guys over there were real nice about helping me out from start to finish.

If you are interested in having your P-car redone or maybe custom wide in the rear then Raj is the man! I was able to see them at work during a couple of those wide body conversions and let me tell you, they did it right; "all metal".....

Venice Collision Experts is located in Venice California (310) 202-1555.... If you are really interested in some quality work then he's got my recomendation!

I'm posting a few pictures I have here compliments of Raj......

"Great minds..."
