He needs to add a 924 turbo front panel, rear mud guards, and the hood duct. Then yum yum!! I have always loved the 924 turbo look.

Mike, doesn't your car have euro bumpers in your avatar? I was comparing the header panels on my turbo and 924S when I was doing the radiator and it doesn't look like too big a job to swap out that sheet metal (cut/weld). It's a must if you're going to run the factory front intercooler pieces on a 924S as I think you would have a lot more time trying to modify something around the stock piece. Somebody needs to do this here!
I agree that unless you did something crazy with the intercooler, swapping that header bracket would be necessary. Is it a cut/weld job or is there a piece that unbolts there? I think that swapping in the center bracket from an 87+ 944 would be the easiest way to do it - they have the right sized cutouts but will definitely work with the 924S header panel.
I definitely agree someone should do something similar and do a complete write-up!

Just got my issue in the mail yesterday and all I can say is WOW!!!
I also like the sleeper aspect of it, the car looks no different than any other Euro 924 yet it kicks a$$.
Shows how decent horsepower, low weight, and good aerodynamics can transform a 30 year old design into something that gives newer cars a run for their money.
