Update: We are making inner ducts right now... which will go inside the ducts in the quarters, front bumper and rockers. Also making inner splash panels (which I think will also be carbon fiber if anybody ever looks up in there). ;o) It's coming along... but will be probably be 6 weeks behind my original painting deadline estimate. It'll be soon though.

Right now the tail is being worked on. a little more. It looks nice, but needs a bit more "German styling"... So an indented/vented area is being added to the tail... looking a bit more Avalanche-ish. ;o)

The new 997.2 GT3 appears to have a similar rear vent. There's some official photos on Porsche.com

Looks fantastic. Can't wait to see the finished product; I'm just up the 23 from where I think you must be, so I'd love to see it in person. PM me where you're creating this masterpiece!!

We're putting all the parts (that came out of the molds) back on the car right now. All the parts that you've seen so far on the car were throw in the trash. hehe So probably about 2 more weeks and this car should be ready for paint. Finally. A month & a half behind schedule. If you'd like to stop by after paint, you're more than welcome. Just PM me for directions.
