Post front spoiler/bumper options

I got a 944S and although I like the look, I prefer to have a one piece front. Do I have any options for a newer look front bumper that does not require me to buy new fenders as well?

thanks-mike

If by newer you mean the turbo/S2 front bumper, Performance Products sells a kit that'll do what you're looking for.

Gt-Racing has several other stles you might want to check out.

I'll sell you the entire front end of my turbo if you are interested. Includes light covers, valence, front bumper with lights, and fenders (you'll need all). I'm going the glass route.

I don't know about him, but I'm interested, at a reasonable price (as my front valace is semi-broken, front valace has a dent, left front fender is also toast... Guess years of hard driving takes it's toll).

You can e-mail me details at over1g@hotmail.com

Thumbs down

Guys,
I dont recomend the perfmance products 951 conversion bumper. I have one and still have not figured out how to attach it. There are no attachment points and no instructions provided. And even more dissapointing is that it seems to sag in the middle and no mate up evenly with the nose panel. Ugh! My advice..Stay away unless you are good at body work and very patient. I have been looking at the bumper from fiber werks and it looks like a good piece but I have been wrong before...Fiberwerks

I have looked into the 944 turbo conversion bumper from Performance. Beside being pricey, I have heard many horror stories about trying to mount the thing. Lots of modifications!
I am in the process of ordering a rear bumper from Fiberwerks. I have been assured from the reps at Fiberwerks that no modifications were necessary for the installation of their bumpers. I love the way their rear bumper looks!
P.S. In my opinion, the 944na front bumper looks much better than the 944 turbo. The turbo bumper makes it look like a Mazda RX-7 coming at ya. The 944na is very origional. Again, that's just my honest opinion.
