It looks very sharp. What are the details on this car outside of the body work? What was it a former life? Engine specs?

Very nice work! Will you PM me the info on where you got the Gemballa style hood and aftermarket front lip? I really like that look.

The car was just a 996 c2 I believe. Nothing was done engine/performance wise.

well, it's hard to put a dollar amount b/c we had our guys do all the fiberglass and R&D work. Let's just say it wasn't cheap

Great quality work.

Wrong....intercooler stuff on a N/A car to me is just stupid. The wheels are too narrow for the body kit...people have commented there.

To me....going to the ultimate N/A car (the 997.2 gt3 rs) would have been far wiser. Just me. I think it is plain stupid....almost a "wicked" to me. I saw one of those in Palm Beach at the dealer. The staff and other customers were just giggling at the guy.....it was sad. And it was amazingly wide...way more than my turbo. Way. The puny stock brakes with huge gaps to the very big chrome rims ruined the whole thing the most.

My feeling: if you can afford that body work, why not get a turbo...and mod it....to get some real performance. I am not a bling person I guess.
