That's a regular n/a 944 air dam that's been stretched to bolt up to the fenders. It looks out of proprotion to the rest of the front. That car desperately needs the 924 GTR front bumper to match those massive fenders.

That doesn't look like a 944 front bumper and valance. It looks like the Carrera GT piece. If you put the image into PS and lighten it you can see it isn't the 944 front end.

It does appear to be the GT- front end. When I was doing my car I planned on using the same. However, after talking to Hank at GT-racing he convinced me to go with his 944 front end that drops down an extra 1.5" and then add a splitter for best results. It clearly works, but with 17" wheels running 275/40's the splitter still sits a bit high (see avatar).

Looks like the photo was taken at the latest Chin event at RA that Chad was at in his "frankencar". Chad, any info on this car?
