I have finished the mechanical side of things and have sealed up the car water tight...next on the list is to make her beautiful.

916 front bumper is out...and the original front bumper is out...

any other suggestions for the front bumpers?

Stock or wide body?

For a wide body, I think that the Sheridan front body kit looks awesome. I plan on glass GT bumpers and valences. There used to be a 944 turbo front end that looks good, but it is no longer in production.

Stock body, I think that the factory early chrome bumpers can't be beat.

I believe it is Kevin Groot? that has the front clip I want. It is all carbon fiber and one piece and looks great for something that just bolts on. Other than than Sheridan does make the other front end I would like.

Groot's front piece is awesome. Get it Jon! I would love to see that on your car!
Not street/parking lot friendly, but check it....

is this sheridan? (yellow) because i absolutely love the job on this car...and there is a deep blue one that looks similar that is just as nice. i am planning on fiberglass flares for the wheels...maybe flared rocker covers...but just cant stand chrome...
i put carbon fiber mirrors on but trying to go with red/black theme...pictures are amazing...

here is the blue one i was talking about as well
