(IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) That's a major piece to have out of the way! Nice work.


Thanks Tony & Brent. Yep, still here, just being the tortoise. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/morning1.gif)

Rhodguy/Kevin was selling a six flapper box. I figured Porsche did it for a reason so I just copied it. I just used some regular 4 pieces, cut out the hole with a hole saw in a drill press and then blasted and powdercoated the parts. Mine weren’t in great shape so I had nothing to loose.

First one is Kevin’s original.
2nd is my modded one.
3rd pic is a comparison from Rory.


I thought that looked familiar.

I posted this earlier in my thread but I think it’s cool to look at
and I’m sure it’s gonna be loud. The primitive diffuser is interesting.


Hey Dion
I have one of those.
I can report it IS friggin' LOUD !
Loved it.
But not easy to be inconspicuous with.
Mine is not nearly as clean as yours.

Seeing all these 914 50th celebrations got me inspired again.
Kids are sorted and back at college. Enough of that running around.
Not too mention the new Jeep toy. So didn’t do any big welding of chassis
just little jobs for now.
First up drilled the rear panel for proper 6 emblem placement.

Realized that the bracket is just a little too big so I skimmed some metal off the bottom portion.

Next was taking Larmo’s advice and bored a new hole in the fog lite itself so
it is oriented in the proper plane with regards to the car.
Drilled out the “21w” logo

And mounted. Will run wiring when the rest of bodywork is completed. It looks massive without the bumper being there. I’ll
source some proper hardware when doing the finish work. Give the brackets a proper coat as well.

Looking good. Remind me what this light is for? Is it to keep faster cars from running into the back of you? Wouldn’t it have been easier to put in something bigger than the 2.4 and leave the warning light off? Just a thought. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
