the consequences of half assing it

So I needed a new sheath for the front trunk release cable in the six. I got one & figured it was a quick install. Jackass. Fortunately, I had to cut a hole in the front trunk anyway- need an exit for the oil cooler. Cut a hole in the floor of the front trunk of a six, sad.gif , poped the hood, re-installed the cable release properly this time, dry.gif , cut & welded in a repro of the factory air exit plate on the 916 & GT. Needs cleaning & repainting but so does the whole car. Plate is double bead welded in so it's not going anywhere. I figure I'll just keep fixing everything & test fitting all my mods before I take it all apart & repaint the whole car. At least I get to enjoy it that way. Put 245 miles on her today; I must be getting around 16mpg in this pig. It's not a 4!! Fun driving.gif ! Got a headlight that's not working. Turn signals & horn stopped working as well- loose cables or a bad relay. Going to weld a new battery tray & support back in the engine bay & get rid of the front battery next. I hate bugs.
