Chad, I don't think I've ever seen a cleaner bottom on a 944!
Also, I really like the stripes, but did you consider running them all the way down the front bumper?

Yeah...I am going to finish that this evening. It's a technical to place stripes on the nose. So I have to take my time.

2nd on running the stripes all the way down, but all the same, that is one hell of a car. Oh, and I'll take the gaps from your carbon fiber fenders over stock any day of the week.

Vinyl. Easier to deal with. I have an extra set if someone is interested. Same color (Pewter silver) and includes a white "PORSCHE" script.

The silver would look great on a red car. What color is your interior?

You shooting for the August DE as the maiden voyage? Looks really good. I may run into you at Road Atlanta some time. Out of curiosity, how much would stripes like that tend to run the average Joe walking in? And yes I'm the guy who said I didn't like them off center, and it does look better in person. I'm really wondering more than anything....I'd be looking for something in gold.

Sure you don't want me to break in it for you this weekend????? Assume it passed the sniff test? Those stripes would look good on my black car.

Black dual power leather sport seats (from factory)... I'm considering paint and Vitesse this coming winter, and the stripes might set it apart from the pack of red on black cars out there...
