Yea I did! (suspension)

Plus a grand on a respray etc. etc.

As for your arches I would replace those wings and get the rears plated. Go on do it!

aw but i like the matt red

http://www.mattecars.com/2009/09/matte-red-porsche-carrera-gt.html

got a call from the garage today, it needs..
3 new tyres
2 wheel bearings
front lower arms

not too bad really, gonna price up the satin red as a diy job, got nothing to loose coz otherwise it'll just be broken. gonna get a sensible daily and keep this as a mess around, as its worth jack all to anyone else but its a sound runner so would be a shame to sell it for peanuts or to break it!

but at the same time i change my mind on a regular basis so who knows??
