Default Backdating 84 TLC

I'm considering backdating my 1984 TLC to the 74 IROC bodystyle. After reading some of the threads of the do it yourselfers, I realize it is way beyond my skill level. Does anyone know of a quality Porsche Bodyshop that could handle this conversion in the Central Pennsylvania/Maryland area? Thanks in advance.

Does TLC mean Turbo Look Coupe? If memory is fairly correct, you would need front and rear bumpers and a new rear spoiler. I *thought* the IROCs used Turbo flares.. where they wider than Turbo flares? If you are not handy with bodywork then yes, please find a competant and well, likely expensive shop, to do the work.

Am I reading this correctly? You have a Turbo Look Coupe? Is it a factory TL? Is the car in nice condition? If the car is a real TL you want to do what?

I really hope that '84 was prior to real, or it's not a real factory TLC. If it's a real TLC sell it for $30K, buy an SC for $14K and use the $16K for half the money it's gonna take to build the IROC. OR go all in and buy Butzip's new 912 and use your 3.0 to make a killer RSR. now that is money well spent.
