i would love to see it! ive considered the same thing before. ive always been a fan of the 944 s2 front clip. that'd be cool to use it (sectioned??) in conjunction with the 944 fenders. Attached image(s) |

picked up my 911 spindles, rotors, calipers and master cylinder tonite. It looks like the mc wont work though. I mounted everything up to make sure it would fit and everything is great but the offset of my wheels is going to require me to space the front almost two inches! I used my early 944 hubs to mount the rotors and they fit fine. Now on to find another master and disassemble the front end, paint/detail, new bearings and check out the floor in the front before i can put it all back together again!

Did you scrape everything out of the wheel wells before spraying more undercoating on?
What undercoating did you use? I've got to get a lot of it, as I've got shiney new floors right now. Keep up the great work. Maybe I can drive mine down there and I'll have you paint it too! (I'm dreading that part) |

i tried a bunch, best out there is 3m, the big can. That stuff rocks. I did the entire front under w/ one can, and the rear w/ one can.

I've got a can of the NAPA stuff, the DynaMat stuff, and another off-brand. (Not that those aren't.) I'll give them all a shot on some scrap and see what looks like it'll work the best.
Is thicker better, or endurance? Did you prime first? |

i wire brushed the old stuff off and roughed up the surface a bit w/ some scuff pads.
the 3m seems to spray out alot nicer and cover much better. It also seems to stick better than the cheaper stuff. |

Looking back at your older posts...
Are the holes in the center tunnel something I should do? that seems like a place that rust could START rather than prohibiting it. |

well, it took some small spacing but the calipers fit like a glove. Finally got the rack hooked back up and the parts prepped, painted and installed. Yet to get brake lines or mc yet. Now its time to prep under the tank area, get ready for a sway bar, and do some body work! Also got my euro german plate in to stick up front. Progress..i can see it coming together finally!
