Was the car terminal Will? Shame to see another 9x4 bite the dust :(

I have posted these elsewhere, but rude not to in this thread, as I forget it is on here!

Good god Steve yours looks a bit different now. I love the colour combo of your car.
I'm also sticking with the 2tone colour scheme. But it'll be white over blue. Not sure which blue yet. Maybe cobolt!? It'll be a porsche colour.

Nooooo!!! You have the best two tone colour combo right there with Platinum Met over Havanna Brown. I strongly suggest you keep the original colours for the sake of originality and future classic values. Please don't switch colours.

(Also Porsche did not offer a white over blue combo) http://www.werk924.com/index.php?option ... &Itemid=33

Well kinda --- I took the bonnet and bootlid off and did them on a rack, likewise the wings and all the plastic capping. I've still got the doors and rear flanks to do but I think I'll be ok - the garage is wider than it looks in the pic, not quite a double but the asshat builder still built it with a single width door opening - I can only just get the car in with the mirrors folded!!
