Forever working on my rebuild specs....and waiting for it to cool down a little in AZ.
I have noticed in several various photos of 914's that I see on occasion that people have removed or do not have any of that vinyl on the sides of the targa "roll bar". I assume that this has been removed for a couple of reasons: 1. Personal preference 2. The fight against rust (my rebuild project has some under there) 3. It didn't come with it originally (???) Anyways, if you were rebuilding a 914, would you put it back on or just leave the body color paint there? I plan on having the vinyl piece across the top however. Thanks, boxsterfan |

QUOTE 3. It didn't come with it originally (???) QUOTE I say "keep the vinyl" It was original except the LE's and 916's as far as I know, and I think it looks good. It wasn't original on all cars. There were many 914/4s without the "appearance group" package that included the side vinyl. Personally, I really don't like the vinyl, and it may come off my car when it's painted next. |
