Re: More pictures needed
Very nice work. Reminds me of a guy on Rennlist who admits to having OCD. Oh, and a pic from the underside of a another car that I had on file which is also pretty clean.

Re: More pictures needed
finished fitting the new fuel lines
re-furbished the drive shafts and powdercoated in silver and fitted my KWV3
I think I've lowered it a bit to far but it's going to CofG shortly I'll let them sort it out

Re: More pictures needed
Got a few more photos and details of the top mounts Ken?
I think one of mine is rattling on the 968.

Re: More pictures needed
Took ages to decide on caliper colour I went to local porsche showroom and looked at what colour new cars have then got all the caliper soda blasted
Decided I did not like the raised letters they hold the dirt so I sanded the calipers smooth then off to powdercoat and laquer with some 200 deg vinyl letters I'm happy
Some nice new porsche crossover pipes and bleed nipples ...pistons in this weekend
