nasty. 馃檨 are you thinking of returning them to stock while getting it done?

LIFE IN THE LOW LANE 路

Yep return to stock and remove what looks like 5-10kg of bog on each wheel arch.

Mood: Getting ready for next show? You were getting ready for todays show b4 the fibreglass got knocked out of the 'sail'. Perhaps they should call them 'wheel ouches' instead of arches. Yeah, pretty sad beginning of what should`ve been a great day considering the effort you & (R) put into it. So,couple of Jd`s later, the mind has settled down somewhat & now the ideas you`ve had going on can be put into practice. At least now you know just how the flares were made. A couple of weeks time & hopefully all this will be sorted. cheers

A sad beginning to the day mate, idea's flowing thick & fast......should come back better than it was if i know how you think, time heals all wounds. Noddy.

LUFTMEISTER 路

Might need to see a boat repairer with all that fibreglass and resin. How did it happen, the usual brick letterbox while reversing?

pete wood 路

tell you what, just thinking, if that's how they did the guards, makes you wonder...HOW did they do the headlights?! 馃お

badkarmann 路

head lights are only porsche 911 lenses so no problems there,what im asking is who is a good for repairing the car

badkarmann 路

just the stripes to go

68AutoBug 路

The car is looking great Mate. My personal opinion, the stripe does not do anything for the car specially the bottom bit. It doesn't follow any of the body lines and kind of ruining the look. But that is only my opinion. Post some more pics of the car from far. Would love to see more of it

vwsteve 路

i agree with raf, ditch the stripes, doesnt suit it, can i ask where you got your wheels from?im after a really deep dished 4 stud mags to suit my ghia, i also have majorly flared guards on my yellow ghia, cheers

DirkHedde 路

after a nice repair its a shame they couldnt put that stripe on straight for you at the bottom. its hard to find a good help these days

greedy53 路

no stripe it looks mean as is

badkarmann 路

some shots from a distance

Baja Wes 路

The horizontal stripe certainly looks better. The car sure is different, but cool 馃檪

pete wood 路

I love customs, and I love HUGE racing flares, but there something about the rubber ended 911 bumpers that leave me cold. Reminds of rubber nose MGBs. 馃檨

I reckon you should think about ditching them and go fully for that early 70's sports sedan look. 馃槒

Wannavee 路

Uuuuuummmmmm.I love Porsches,I love KG's.Do i love this????
I sorta cant decide!
Think i do like it actually.
Hafta agree with Pete though
Awsome work mate

badkarmann 路

68AutoBug 路
