[QUOTE=nippy;8954425] Allot more then what I was planning but since this is my last car, I'm going to do it right.
[QUOTE] You Sir, have my utmost respect! :) |
So I bit the bullet and purchased the 993 aero mirrors. Not period correct but I think they work well on the older cars. Again paying homage to my first SC track car which also had them. These will be painted matte/satin black to match my wheels. I take my inspiration as far as the color choice from the silver car below. I just think it works with the black wheels and trim!

That silver car inspired me also (except that it needs a proper center mounted oil cooler). Nice mirror choice.

New Bosch turn signals got here today. Mine were old/faded and the mounting post were broken on one of them. Also got the Stoddard front bumper seal, kind of like the factory smile but a bit thinner. My builder told me about this piece. I'm really happy with it. I think the silver car above is running it also.

New Euro amber tail lenses came in today. These are a couple of the parts on the car where I didn't purchase factory OEM Porsche parts. I used our hosts Uro brand. I heard good things and the price was right. I did get the factory seals for the lenses.

I found some more motivation. This red wide body car has the same exact 17" wheels, black headlight rings and black 993 mirrors. I have a slightly different front bumper but its pretty darn close! Same look I will have except I'm running a duck and my car is white! His is a 3.4 based on 86 3.2 and mine is a 3.3 based on 80SC 3.0. I cant wait, getting excited again!!!
