Ok... So, really dumb question.. What exactly is a wide kit other than the obvious? I understand going wider on a base 911 but uou indicate a wide kit upgrade for your 03TT.. I have an 03 TT as well, but not real sure how much wider you really need or what you gain out of it.
I would love the bare carbon coupe, we have talked about it.....I guess we will have to wait and see.
Art, the clutch may find a new home if it will work for the application. Betim will make the call, and thanks.

You dont actually plan on tracking that do you?
For starters the look, then added stability moving the corners out further, and that you can fit pretty much any size tire, within reason of course. I really love Porsche and I hate the 996 headlights, other than that we wanted to make an exotic looking supercar. I cant wait to complete the coupe, should be a lot less than the 11 months this took as the molds are done. I am estimating Jan as the holidays always seem to slow things down.

Heavychevy: No, my cars are street cars, and the cab is almost a show car or will be. It will be a weekender mostly, but the coupe could make some laps, that won't be its purpose, but it could. I live were the roads are curvy, so I like stability. When I can I will post up some photos of this next to a stock 996TT, it looks something like this:

Wow, I do not like body conversions, but this is truly a beauty! This is by far better than Gambella, TA etc.

Thanks Casey...Patrick is truly an artist, with a passion for Porsche. This conversion turned out better than we both could have imagined. Mechanical stuff is happening now and the car should be on the road soon. I am looking forward to seeing it with the Cayman @ SEMA. I will post photos.
Good Day.

Guys and Gals,
This car is super cool. I tried to pick it apart but the craftsmanship and passion that went into this think tank between Brad and Patrick is simply awesome. Even when you peek between the body lines and under the car the work is great. The carbon work is at or above the 997RSR here in the shop.
Great Job guys
