hehe looks like my 74 super =)

Which body kits? I'm not sure I'm familiar w/ the turbo that you mentioned.

might try these places:

http://www.glass-action.com/

http://www.markvfiberglass.com/

http://www.bigwigracecars.com/home.htm

http://www.csp-shop.de/cgi-bin/shop2...kid=8972797103

That should at least get you started.

BTW CSP is pretty pricy. They say Carbon Joe does great work.

those are body parts from actual Porsche's....they mostly look like stock airdams you can find some of them here, they have front and rear bumpers sold seperately and they also have full bodykits, theyre reasonable priced too.

That might help you out some....just a little reminder though, they do need to be fitted to the body correctly so some fabrication is required!

I dont know yet I havent gotten the one Im using on my 1302 yet. From the pictures and a Turbo here in town (I flipped a bitch just to follow it home) I think it might need guite a bit of tedious work to it....it might be a good fit width wise though. the rear is another story here ...no comment yet

I think the best thing for oyu to do would see if you cant find an old used one from a salvage yard just to have for a mock-up and see where youre at as far as modifictaions go....just a thought though!

Dont know much about fiberglass here...my father is gonna be ehlping me out with that one. You could try and contact carbon joe, he seems to be absent right now, but he can give you some of the information you will need.

Good Luck with the glass man

let us know how everything works out for you
