Can figure out how to post pics.


It's up in the FAQ but, basically, down at the bottom part of this "add post" thingy, is a file attachment button. Click on it and it will allow you to choose your pic after going through some file choices. There are size limits for the files but they are generous. If it says you have exceeded the file size limit, scale it down.
Not a fan of the slant nose, but you will enjoy the car! biggrin.gif

I wasn't a fan of the slantnose but it grows on you, I want to go gt flares with the slantnose if it will work, and Subaru engine and trans.

I don't think the front flares will work. Perhaps a combination of rear GT flares and front SC flares?

Here's my car. I think the front flare's leading edge will climb too high on the slant.
See what I mean?

A friend made his slant nose 914 many years ago, and the body man mounted 911SC flares on the back (using the LR on the R side and RR on the left side). It allowed for him to use wider rear rims and kept with the 'softer' look of the slant nose vs the GT flares. I just wish I had a photo to share, but it was back in the 80s and we didn't have phones that could snap digital photos back then.

I will probably need to massage that top corner but I think it's doable.

I had a Slant nose way back in 2000 or so. Mine was a SBC with 915 gearbox. I think they can look pretty good, but the big rubber nose has got to go
