The reassembly has begun!

The rear bumper cover, trunk lid and clam shell have all been attached. The new Depo tail lights and center brake light installed too.

Next, he'll be ghost striping the rear spoiler and wing. The rear bumper guards are getting painted as well.





Can you see the ghost stripe? Can't wait to see it in the sunlight.

We can't wait to see it either! Can barely see the stripe. Would love to see it in person. It is looking great!

So, the progress continues. I am pretty sure I will be getting the car back by the end of this week!

The new GT2 front bumper cover and hood have been installed. Since they were in the midst of working on it, she's pretty dusty. When clean, you can really see the ghosted stripe, but nearly impossible when dirty.

They still have to install the front lower lip, headlights, side mirrors, passenger door, rear wing and side-skirts. They should all go in pretty quickly.

Should I put the Porsche Badge on the hood or leave it off? What do you all think?
