how much?

see my .sig, "'89 VW Golf GTI 8v - Sold!" - that's how much... :(

but looks good. :) had the rubber removed from the bumper too. and the badge panel debadged. the only porsche badges are on the wheels and a black vinyl sticker of the porsche crest on the top of the rear hatch.

wow... well it looks great, no doubt :)

i want to get mine painted black. every other 944 i've seen is red. always red. looks good though!

yeah, they look very good in black. :D but the benefit of red as you said is that it is so common, so the paint is cheap! the paint place i used didn't even have to order any, they stock guard's red on the shelf! :D

my 944 on the other hand is a weird perlescent purple / blue metallic (original porsche colour) and that cost £$£$£$£$£$£$ to get a wing painted (more than the entire 924).

tnx,
