Porsche 911 GT1: A special request

Back in the day, I was trying to "Shrink-wrap" a decal onto the top of the intake on the Porsche 911 GT1 with a regular blow-dryer. Bad idea. The heat was too much for the thin suspension arms, and they got warped, really bad. My whole rear suspension was toast.

So now I've undertaken the task or recreating a suspension, but I'm not sure what the factory angles of each suspension arm is anymore. In other words, I need pictures.

Could sombody take a picture of the rear suspension from the back of the car, with the lens at the same height as top suspension arms so I can see that angle? Basically, just a profile shot of the rear of the car, taken from down low. Also, an above shot looking straight down would be appreciated.

Thanks!

EDIT: Couple of things to note... this is the Tamiya kit. And yes, I tried the search function and the gallery, but couldn't find those specific angles.

I dont know if youve solved your little problem yet, but i bought this kit today and am going to start it tomorrow. I could do a dry run of the parts and post you up a picture if you still need it

Another option to consider- get yourself some new suspension parts. My experience with ordering replacements from Tamiya is that they've always been more than accomodating. They have a link from the Tamiya USA site describing how to order replacements. The kit is still in production, so it shouldn't be much trouble.

Good luck-
