Talking I love me some 931 nose panel

I finally finished it after a couple weeks of on-again, off-again work.

Looking good, always loved the 931 nose panels. Had many pass through my hands in the time ive owned a 944 series car. Ive got a custom one for a 951 that xsboost made, but really need to repaint the entire car before i can put it on.. front end is way to faded for a freshly painted body panel.

The funny thing is that since the paint job on my car was only of modest quality, I felt it was best to not get too carried away with making this look great for the same reason.

If you want I can come over and put a few dents in your panel to motivate you

My brother already did that for me.

Epic story: he was for some reason running towards my car in the parking lot and tripped over one of those diamond shaped, tree holding curbs and went flying forwards towards my car and slammed into the hood (picture a stocky 210 lb 20 year old) and it made this very minor dent in the center panel that's only noticeable if you're looking for it

One of my favorite mods. I really need to start looking on Ebay for a replacement vent or two for down the road. 30 year old plastic on the front of a car cannot last forever.

Anyone know if they are still availiable from Porsche?
