I always thought the 914 should have had side air scoops

I think it's that everyone is trying to Singer-ize something. It's happening to many classics - BMWs, Alfas...
Or maybe whenever I see a classic that's being highly resto-modded/updated, or whatever you want to call it, Singer comes to mind. Not that I have a problem with that. Regardless, in the end, beauty is in the eye of the beholder (or check writer). Keep calm and modify on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |

Yes it's too wide for the trailing arm points. Wasn't there a 914/boxster creation several years ago? There's a thread on it here somewhere, boxster chassis and 914 body. |

It was orange with wide bodywork. Sat pretty high for a 914. |
