    thoughts on this look

    Happily ripped off the early German site posted by Thorsten73. I like the clean look and the stripe doesn't hurt.

    I love that look...

    I don't know who owns this car or where I lifted this image. But, damn sweet. I guess you know my vote.

    I'd put tape on the F & R bumpers.

    Bob's car looks great!

    We will go for it, with the tape. Time to start removing the chrome rocker panels, and the other bits.

    Who makes/sells the better fitting glass bumper pieces?
    Source for tape?

    TIA

    Nice!!

    Would look better without the polished rims. Go with anodized finish.

    I think the R tailights would be interesting with this look.

    Too late for the rims - polished them out and painted them last summer - 8 hours each. Too much time investmented to go back, but the lights..... now that's a great thought.

    One more call on who makes good fitting fiber glass pieces and the stripes for the bumpers?

    Based Jack's recommendation on another thread, I went with Rennspeed for the bumpers. How can you beat, great fit, price, and ready to paint?

    But who sells the adhesive stipes for the bumpers?

    You mean the decal that mimics the road versions deso trim? Usually, it comes with the Carrera kit. But I would think any decal shop could cut you some.
