Some of you may know that my 914 has picked up the nickname Bitchy Blond since I put in the Raby Kit 2270... A flag man at an autocross as I was waiting to enter the course said "man that thing sounds like a bitchy blond."
I decided get my Dellorto carbs covered with some rainhats since I do wash it once in a while and I met a guy at McMark's shop named Sammy who does airbrushing. Sammy showed me his portfolio and I could see he was an incredible talent. I ordered the Morphenspectra Rain hats and had them sent direct to McMark. Sammy picked them up and based on my description of what I wanted he came up with these...
I think it is incredible. It captures the spirit of the Bitchy Blond pretty well...

That will be a nice surprise for someone when you open the engine lid! Looks cool.

Whatever James charges... I don't recall, sorry. $250 to Sammy. He had abstract ideas that would have been less. Actual faces are tougher.
Sammy is a friend of McMark' so other ideas could be run by Sammy through Mark. Very nice guy too...

Very Cool!
Now you have to figure out how to carry the theme "lower" -- somehow you have to paint the engine tin to show 1135cc's of cleavage on each side...
...nah, don't go there!

Bah, put two together under the same roof and they automatically sync themselves. I've got three girls in my house, and I'll be thanking my lucky stars for that for awhile...

The girls are clearly twins... They will face away from each other looking out as you open the engine lid. I have a GT lid (Thanks Sergio!) so they will be visible without opening it. Kind of eerie looking actually.
