update for bumpers
I'm considering an update of my bumpers from the original early '89 style with the bellows on the sides, to the later '89/'90 style. Has anybody done this change, or does anyone know of a source for the parts, other than the friendly neighborhood Porsche dealer? Along with a new paint job, I think it would be a welcome change. TIA

The PO installed them on my 79. If it was my choice I would have gotten a more aggresive front with a splitter. I would also change the rear wing and mirrors at the same time.

Check out MA Shaw. I've used them for the parts on my car when I did a color change and update. Their parts fit pretty well and required very little shaping and forming. Stay away from better bodies. GT Racing is for racing parts.

this is a getty kit that i installed on my car. I molded in the front . IF you look close i do not have a rubber smile on the front. i will tell you that in my opinion all the kits need work. I also have rocker panels for the sides. I used the beter body rockers. I found them better than the getty rockers. but the fenders and front rear were better by getty. Still many hours fitting them. I also changed the front for my front mount cooler. so it has an opening now.

Duke if you no the front up by the hood has a rubber lip that goes around the front from bumper to bumper. i took that out and filled in with fiberglass. It is a 94 front . Look at a 94 and you will see the rubber molding i am talking about. You have it on yours. It is larger though. look at the 94 that posted before me and u will see the rubber smile. It is hard to see on black . but on other colors you can see iti easier. thanks
