Please pardon this question if its been asked. I've been lurking this thread (see screen name. I'm wondering where you guys purchase most of your parts. Most important rear finders and bumper. I will replace those first. My dumbassidness backed into my truck (very tight driveway) I didn't hit the truck hard but it did slightly push in the pass side rear finder and fold under the wheel arch some. So, I figure why pay a pretty good chunk of change to fix that when I can upgrade. LIKE MY THINKING?

Also, I've used some of the new very high performance adhesives like the Austin Martin are put together with. Why not use that type of product to install finders? I'm piss poor at best with welding and don't just want to use kitty hair and bondo to install them. That would be a serious injustice.

Has anyone done wide rear's with a narrow front in order to swap the rear rims to the front?

LASTLY, this may be a MAJOR faux pas but has anyone used the old RS style rear lights with center reflector delete with a 993 body change. I really like the simplistic look of those tail lights. If anyone has PhotoChop could you give it a try and give me an idea of the look? What do ya'll think of that type of setup?

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND EVERYONE. 24HRS of Le Mans has me glued to the tele

OH I HAD A THOUGHT about the 'spider cracks that seem to happen to those of you who use fiberglass finders. I know this works because I've used it and its cheap. Get a couple tiles of CLD tiles to take up the shock. You can stack them as thick as needed. Hope those of you who have a hard go at it with this issue give it a try. Its cheap and works.
