I'd rather wait until I can get a 968, and be able to have the two different cars. I think the most I will do is the rear turbo spoiler.. Maybe the 968 wing or some other wing.. but overall i'd like to keep the car as stock as I can bear...

No. I have nothing against the current mirrors and the current script handles so I dont see much point in dropping the $300+? USD on new mirrors and handles.

just like the turbo front end and the rear valence, i think 968 mirrors are a great upgrade for the 944's looks. they make it look a few years newer. byebye flags.

I'd like to get the handles, mirrors and especially the spoiler.
Found a European supplier for the spoiler, but I cannot decide which one to get.

Maybe I will put it to my 928 because they are more aerodynamic. When you goes 120-160 mph the stock '78-'91 928/924/944 mirrors are very loudy.

I will as they go with my theme of eliminating black trim from the car...next will be mirrors/handles and 968 rocker panels. After that I should be pretty much done with all of the planned exterior mods.

Well, I have found a source that makes 968 style rockers that fit 944's. Two actually I believe. They are both across the pond however. If not from them Im going to adapt a set from a wrecked 968. Im in no hurry, but Im confident It will look sweet once completed.
