OK, folks, what pieces of this car would you use to build a famous Porsche race car out of?

1) Driver's side rear view mirror.
2) Possibly the windshield wipers.
3) Possibly the door handles - they look small.
4) If the race car can be a dual-purpose car, the little bumperettes would be a good replacement in the rear for the big pads from '75 onward.
