Since I have a Steel-Roof car that is going in the paint shop soon, I need some opinions. With my Steel-Roof, making a 916 clone does make some sense. The color will be going back to the car's original Anacona Blue, so that is set.

I like the 916 rear bumper, but I really don't like the front.

What should I do?

Here is my car now
