Sorry for not being up on the build, but is this going to be an ST replica?

I love that color! I hope to have a long-hood that same color someday when the money tree starts bearing fruit!

That is mighty fine!

Just out of interest, why the black spray at the front? Is it to provide a black/dark backing to the grills?

Milt - John Espositio is a magician with bodywork. I can't praise the man enough for the impeccable work that he does.

Max - Cats and bags. I'm a VERY proud papa...

tobluforu - Yes. The customer wanted to convert the RS style 911 that he bought into the ST tribute that he wanted.

onboost - Thanks for noticing! There is a wire rolled into that lip just like a 356 fender.

D911SC - You guessed it. Body color behind the grilles can be cool, but we felt this was more in line with the look we are after.

pete3799 - Absolutely.

Is that hood metal or glass? Hell, I'm inspired.. and waiting on a couple of center fills to arrive for a couple of my projects.

Again nice execution overall.

The lids, doors and fenders are all steel. However, the front and rear bumpers are fiberglass.

Thanks for the kind words. We're all VERY happy with the results thus far.
