I've ordered a standard body 964 kit but haven't received it yet but here are the modified wheels on the Turbo body. I added a strip of flat stock around the rim to increase their diameter and also widened the rears to fit the racing slicks. The Fujimi kit only provides a stock interior so it will take some work to convert it to a proper racing version. I started by cutting out the rear seat and building a bulk head from flat stock. Also sanded off the speakers on the package tray.

Those are some great links Chris-thanks for sharing them. The narrow body kit arrived, the roof was a bit smashed but I think it is usable.

Grafted on the rear wing from a turbo body with a smashed roof. While not 100% correct this will allow me to build a reasonable facsimile of a C4 lightweight by modifying the turbo wing surround. The Leichtbau is very rare with only 22 examples produced. or I could use the high wing and replicate the N-GT. But I think I'll save the high wing for the turbo body.

Removed the center console and made blank door cards. The gray interior is what you get in the kits.

JC, I'm truly impressed with your skills to create a correct 964 C4. To tell the truth, I wasn't to sure exactly what a 964 C4 is other then a variant of the 911 series, so Google provided the basics for me.
