Pork Chops Posted 30April, 2017 Author Report Share Posted 30April, 2017 What have you done here, Mr Chops? Billet, RP, carved from soap? Billet PVC on a CNC. All dimensions and details taken off a reflector and programmed in. Rear is then drilled and tapped and threaded rod inserted for the fixings. Threadlock applied. It bends enough to be pulled into shape when fixed, but remains under tension the whole time. I'm told it works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pork Chops Posted 30April, 2017 Author Report Share Posted 30April, 2017 Nice. Bending to fit it will make painting tricky. You'll need a flex agent in your paint so it won't crack. Well it's painted and fitted so I guess they sound a solution. Perhaps as you say they used a flex agent. Don't forget this is the same material they use for bumpers albeit in a different form, but that stuff flexes quite a bit before the paint cracks. Hot Rod inspiration:Wow Tiian, you find some awesome stuff. That thing is full on. What a pity he didn't paint the engine bay and frunk area. Car is immaculate and then then you open the lids and....Hating the white letters but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastr Posted 30April, 2017 Report Share Posted 30April, 2017 I wouldn't be happy with the fit and finish of that front bumper where it meets the 930 guards. And I'd fit the gas lifters to the front and back - save 100g or so and have to prop them up every time? No thanks. The colour looks great though.

Pork Chops Posted 2May, 2017 Author Report Share Posted 2May, 2017 I think regardless of why, it's a pity he didn't paint it everywhere. I'd cry every day.More shots of the rear bar with the panels all back together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pork Chops Posted 4May, 2017 Author Report Share Posted 4May, 2017 Had a great day down at Skunkwerks. Went through every last detail of the job and I know exactly how it's going to run. Timeline isn't too bad either. Starts tomorrow and should be a roller in 4-6 weeks time. Down the Cairns for mechanicals. Back to Skunk for body paint, glass, interior, fiddly bits.As it stands today. Rim is 15 x 12 and we think it will fit as the oil tank will be located per a 964 so there are no lines to get in the way.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
