These seem to be like marmite on here, but i've done them and i think its filled it out a bit. you'll be happy to know no screws were involved, just Tiger seal (with is amazing stuff i should add) I painted them with 2 pack which went on great and i've bought enough to do pretty much the whole car! so i'll start with the bonnet which is the main trouble area, its obviously a different colour. and the maybe if i do the doors and wings too i'll get someone else to do the rear quarters and roof as i only have room to do panel by panel. |

Nice work ! Looks like a good job. Out of interest, why didn't you go for the 968 skirts? |

I do like the '68 ones but I think these go with the box shape of the wings, the 968 Is a more rounded car. Plus these were a lot cheaper! R |

Each to his own but not my cup of tea. I think it dates the car, unless you fit the flared arches to match. |

It does make it a bit more 80's looking but then I like that sort of thing. Guess I'm pushing it with my '91. All I need now is those massive GT rear quarters with the vents in the back. |

Looks quite good in red, don't look as larger as they do in lighter colour or the other pics iv seen. Were did you get these from? As I may use these as a base 4 my coustom ones. Think I like the look off the other style a lot more. Would it be possible 2 meet up and see these in person ? May help make my mind up |

I got these second hand, had a lot of cracks in them I had to re glass but I got them cheap so I can't complain. I think they're the same as the ones on ebay but I can't be sure. Yeah if you're local feel free to come round. My cars currently sorn at the moment so I cant drive it anywhere unfortunately. I'm off work all week so whenever. Rich. |
