Remember the classic seventies 911 racing stripes?
Surprisingly, they would work pretty good for the 986...Retroooooo :D

Your car looks great! Enjoy. That white crap must be suds from washing after you got home.

Beautiful car. Interesting color combo.

BRAN 03-08-2016 02:48 PM

Very nice and rare color combo, never seen one like that before.:cheers:

Frontpage 03-08-2016 03:28 PM

Thanks for the kind words. I searched for a long time to locate a "unique" color combination. One of my "must haves" was a red interior.

sexy back, was a lucky shot earlier :D

BRAN 05-09-2016 09:29 AM

Done. (still need to figure out a proper DRL solution) :cheers:

...and i need that chrome windshield trim sooner or later, for sure.

Those "Zunden" chrome bezels (which met my friends "dremel", "file" and "sand paper") are becoming extremely rare. I was lucky enough to find a pair in Japan!

BruceH 05-09-2016 01:43 PM

Nicely done BRAN:cheers:

...well, I have always been ahead of time...with RETRO :D
Still considering a similar idea...chrome rubber bumper bands...but have to get my back-up sensors (front&back) and blind-spot sensors (back) installed first.
Yeah, that is my next big mod coming...lol

BRAN 05-20-2016 07:09 AM

Project 986 "RETRO" aka the #neverendingone continues...
http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1463756027.jpg
Those bumpers trims are actually for a Porsche 911 (65-73). First I had to figure out, how to carefully bend them into a 986 shape. I am confident to bring the front bumper into shape as well :D

BRAN 05-30-2016 04:57 AM

All "chrome" (actually polished aluminum) 911 bumpers are finally bent into the 986 shape (only marginally adjustments necessary for final installation).
10 screws front | 8 screws rear. As this step is taken, the next can be done. Finding the best spots for the front and rear parking & blind spot sensors.

Love a red interior. First seal grey I've seen with that combo. Gorgeous!

BRAN 06-22-2016 11:21 AM
