All the photos he posted seemed to be photos taken at the place - the headlamp is still not installed and there is a rag sticking out of the hood - do you think they delivered it like that?

I am curious to see how the car looks right now, AFTER he took delivery.

Why did you put the word kit in quotes when the car obviously has a substantial body kit on it?


Thanks for deciphering the lettering for us What's your point? A real Gemballa avalanche has a different front bumper, hood, and rear deck. It also doesn't have 991 tails.

This most likely means that either this car is not a gemballa avalanche and this has a knockoff widebody kit on it, which is what wicked is known to make, or that it's a real gemballa avalanche, thats been wrecked, and had the hood,front bumper, and god knows what else replaced, which is also something wicked is known to do. Sure, it could be a real gemballa avalanche that someone took to Wicked for extensive re-modification, but how likely does that seem?

you know what avalanche "look" or "style" means? It means knockoff parts.

OP came to forum with one post about his newly acquire turbo, we simply let him know Wicked is a shady company and hopefully he did all his homework before putting down a large sum of money. Actually we are here to help more than hurt anyone, these guys have some of the most useful information about 911 than average people.

thanks for all this jibberish, sounds like you know whats up with this car:roll eyes:

his money to spend however he wants, if he digs it than more power to him. i dunno if is a real gemballa or not, really don't care, i wouldn't have this or any gemballa in my garage. porsche is made for simplicity and elegance and not flash but to each there own
