yup...paint and everything. The only artifact is that the right fender is slightly bowed...if you sight the hood gap from the front to the windshield, it shrinks a bit at the middle.
And the new stock valence is drilled for a front spoiler (which I have), so if I get really out of control and put an underbelly conderser in, I can go with a 964 deck and be slealth speed racer. Got my POC membership, now just gotta find the time to get to the track... |
