I respect your response. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I do what I do because I enjoy it.
I don't expect everyone to understanding what I am doing. Sometimes people just have their own paths to get to the final product.

Im sorry to say this but i find what your doing ridiculous. its the same as adding an M badge to a non M Car.. Its still a fake or a replica. You want a 997 then get a real one, chopping up a beautiful 996 and trying to make it look like a 997 techart gt is just not the same as actually having one.. I myself could never live knowing that what i really still had was a chopped up 996. If you have the money to drive a porsche do it right, Your conversion, though classy, still has ghetto written on it.. Maybe you have nothing else to do and are bored of your 996, but jeez makeing a fake 997 wannabe is still worse in my opinion..
I really dont mean to sound like a jerk here, but this to me is sinful, and i know from personal experience, that once a body shop starts cutting and pasting parts and pieces, the machine is never the same again.. just my 2 cents, hope you dont hate me for it..

Good luck...although I am of the opinion that it would have been better to startf rom a 997 than 996 base...but each of us has different elements that float our boat and I respect that
