it's ALIVE
lighter in the wallet, but better in the long run. Turbo tie rod ends, Carrera cooler, Elephant Racing finned lines. The valence is temporary, as I'm going to go back to a stock valence (hey, you never know until you do the experiment). Much thanks to Kevin, Dave, Tyson, Jeremy, and the rest of the crew.
   and yes, I know it needs 8s. I'm a little tapped out right now though... |

That Valence looks too much like a Carerra for you, eh?
 Your car looks great w/ the duck! Have a great flat six New Years!

Wow, that was quick!! Can you post some before/after photos side by side? I can't recall exactly what it looked like before. Did you always have the yellow lenses in back?
Did insurance pay for all the repairs?

Looks good. Are you going to rebadge the engine lid or leave it clean? I like the valence as well- although it looks very low to the ground!

I've got to go back to stock valence...I can't really get up my driveway.
Can I run it without a valence for a few days? Here are the numbers from the scale: 38.1% front, 61.9% rear 2669 lbs front 507/509 rear 826/827 |

They're 2lbs off on the front weights. Must have rushed it

Fix the driveway. Valence looks good.
I hope that thread on Porsche Rice isn't causing second thoughts.

The driveway would cost a lot more than the valence.
The rice doesn't bother me, as much as the fact that the realities of daily driverdom make the valence a drag (pun intended). Hopefully my finned lines are rice

glad to see it all fixed and improved! sorry to see you go through all of that, though.
I am surprised your car didn't return to service in Signal Orange.... |
