Having a hard time with this question. Tuff is a volcanic rock and I couldn't find rimz in the dictionary.

Miami Vice may have some leftover mono colored slant nosed turbos to sell as well.

Funny how the original cars seem to age the best after many years!

I'm not sure which is worse. The spelling or the proposed car.

It's still early. Wait till the responses later when everyone finishes dinner " it's gonna be funny
Having playa in your screen almost entitles us to do it guilt free.

But to answer your question ". That is a ton of work even for a pro. It looks simple
Until you see all the pieces on the garage floor. Then it will sink in. I assume your not looking for a track quality body but a playa style that can actually be taken to a show and says baby lemme spank that arss ". Cuz yu know yo wan it.

Break out that check book. Just joking. Good luck if you move forward.

IMO, if you want to rice out a car, get a Honda. That looks horrible. Mods done to a Porsche should actually improve performance, and this will just slow it down and make the handling worse. Just terrible...

And your post? My 12 yr old daughters write better than that when they text their friends. Wow.

Here's a serious answer, in case you really are serious...which is doubtful.

A LN Engineering IMS bearing retrofit would be money better spent once you get the car running. Your M96 engine may be OK now but if the bearing grenades, hello new engine....$$$$$

That car has some MAJOR chassis damage as well. You'll need to take it to a good body shop and have it checked out and repaired on a Celette (or similar) chassis bench. There is a reason that car was sold at Copart.

If you like the body kit, hey, it's your car. If it makes you happy, go for it. However, it will most likely kill any resale value that car will have. But the salvage title already did that.

Guys, you have to know the playa, he does this on purpose, writes this way. Look back on other posts to find out. And, the playa has his own style....... to each his own.

This kit is complements any year 911:
NOT!

Here's my suggestion.
(before you buy your fast and furious stuff)
1.Take your bent whip to a frame shop. See how out of alignment the frame is. Also see if there is hidden damage to the engine/ trans blocks/radiators/etc....
2.Price out all the new suspension components you need to buy (I am assuming the components ziptied to the car are shot.
3.Price out replacing all the fancy airbags/ etc...window?
4. price out reassembly cost/realignment, brakes, etc.
5.see if this is even in your budget.
6. pm me when you decide to sell the carcass.
Good luck. The kit is the least of your worries.

And people think the 996s are ugly?

Nothing against tasteful mods, but this is plastic surgery gone awry.
