euro bumper on a us spec car
i may have found a line on a euro bumper and am curious, what would be required to fit it to my car? i assume its not just a bolt on mod.

951 euro front bumper is an exact fit for the us front 951 bumper. You will just need to find something to do with the sidemarkers.
I don't know about the N/A front though.
The rear bumpers are all interchangeable as far as I know.

I parted out a 83 euro recently. The front bumper and back bumper are both bolt on operations. The front bumper on this car, the bumper shocks appeared to have been shorten though. But the back bumper was the same shocks as the us cars.

I have a rear euro bumper and xsboost90 has a front euro bumper on his 89 944NA. I know in my case I had to have shorter bumper mounts. The US mounts were too long even when fully compressed. My bumper was from a euro 924 so that may have made a difference. Tifo also has one and I'm pretty sure he used the shorter euro bumper shocks.

I dont think my euro rear bumper has shocks, mines from a euro 951.

The shocks are hard to find, so us poor US guys that work hard to source a euro rear bumper may have to make due with brackets instead.
