Again not quite a body kit...but in the vein of air intakes...
Boxster exhaust too.. (IMG:http://www.thesey.net/image/130.jpg) Or possibly an oil cooler? (IMG:http://www.thesey.net/pictures/hansigreen.jpg) |

QUOTE(Brad Roberts @ Apr 12 2004, 10:42 PM) Dinomium, Have you checked your VIN to see if your car is a LE car ?? Not too many WHITE 914's with funky painted rockers and NO side sail panel vinyl running around. B Hmmm Big B. It does have front and rear sways and a FI 2liter... I need to do some research! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Anybody got a list of LE modles by VIN#? |

This is one that I owned a few years ago. Powered by 2.7, set up for track or street. The ront end was a very heavy lay up. Looked like it was going to be a plug, to pull mold from.

The oil cooler in the green car wont last long in that location (or it doesnt work well). It will get HAMMERED with rocks/crap and it wont work well if they installed a shield 1 inch from it.
Dino... our club member "Bowlsby" has a something like 300 LE vins. He knows when they started and when they stopped production. Do a search on his name. B |

It's got a 3.2 build up on a euro carrera 3.0. Webers, GE60 cams, B&B stainless headers w/heat, front mounted oil cooler, Mayeur kit, GT stiffening kit+, total bare metal restoration The Boxster 17's require spacers.

OK, here are some body types I've come acrossed.

Engine was Turbo'd 4-cyl. Of course we know you can't do that!

I hate that we can't just upload them & post - or am I missing something? Enjoy! |

With that Beach Boys Monterey you'd have plenty of places up front for an oil cooler, a a/c condensor, and a cooler for your beer!

QUOTE 914 Ferrari That looks like a Fiero based kit (unless they severely raked the windshield, removed the wing windows, and didn't use the stock hood). |

Another Ferrari body kit. I know the owner of this car and the body shop. Side story is that he converted MR2 engines into a wide bodied Renault LeCars.
