Project almost complet..

I know this is a cross post from the other board, but....

It has been a long time since my 928 has been on the road, going on 3 years with several interuptions in between. So today I took it for a long drive and a walk in the park for a few pics.:

It has undergone a complete repaint. Eliminated the "s" spoiler. Added my own design rocker covers, front spoiler, rear S4 spoiler and a functioning ram air hood. As well as alot of work under the hood and a re-vamped 2-tone grey and burgundy interior .

Take a look and yell me what you think
..I know the look is not for everyone.

Wow, you do great work. All lines work well with each other. Now put that Euro Fog Light back on! You thought I wouldn't notice, eh?

The engine compart looks great too. What the heck is your Distributor doing on the wrong side?

Also David, you need to stop wearing Red Nail Polish, it's ruining your manly 928 image

I really like the look of the removed DOT front and rear turn signals. Most changes take some getting used to, but this is more like they didn't belong there and now the design is correct.

How about some before and after dyno numbers for that intake mod, or better maybe some 1/4 mile times so the aero effects can come into play?

Wait a minute, was this the one posted on Bannlist. If so, I remember following this one and the hood scoop. Just curious, how are those Purists commenting on your ride?
