Default Pictures pictures pictures! :) Back from the paint booth! :) :) :)

So I'll probably be the only excited one here. But I just wanted to show you guys pictures of what I've done to my 924S. The whole front end was repainted. With the side markers deleted and the bumper pads deleted as well. I need to push in that bumper. If you didn't already know about the dash swap, and all the factory leather bits, you do know. Lol. More are being added on. Next to come are Cup 2 rims! Oh and I do not like the way these photo's are on here. If only Photobucket didn't suck right know! And ignore the rips in my seats.... I got those sports seats for cheap! Lol.

I hope you enjoy these pictures! I know it's not your 951's but I love it.

I am really liking the ultra clean clutter-free front end! And the paint job looks smooth as glass! I think next you should remove the rear "Porsche" and "924S" decals from the rear, as well as delete the rear side reflectors, to match the back to the front!

Very nice car, keep it looking good!

I think that's one of the nicest-looking North American 924's I've seen, its looking great! Getting rid of the side markers and bumper pads make a HUGE difference

Thanks for the comments guys! Keeping it clean is going to be SUCH a pita I bet. It'l be difficult. Lol. Luckily it's garaged and not driven everyday.

Very nice.
Never be ashamed because it's not a 951.
I bet some of those guys would kill for the simplicity.

Thumbs up

Very nice ,look good to me the cups will really make her stand out. I had done the same pumper mod on my 944, also done the rear & it make the car look shorter & cleaner ,I sugest you try A.I.R if you do the rear very good quality fiberglasse & durable,to give you an idea I've included a side view pic you can judge by yourselve if it worth doing it & really don't think you need to push in your front bumper she look good that way./Cheers

Ernie, I don't think a 944 bumper will fit on a 924 body.
I'm very interested to see a 924 with cup wheels on it, might be the upgrade I'm looking for. Btw the marker light removal is a must for me if mine ever needs a respray.
What method was done for the light delete? Peice of metal welded in or just a crap ton of bondo?

4 7"s should do the trick.

car looks spot on. makes me miss my black 924. I love the lines of the narrow body.If ruf ever had built a front engined 4 cyl I wonder if they would have used the narrow body with monster turbo rumming gear?

Those grey silver Cups should look real nice on a black or red car ,I know that the 944 pumper won't fit but if they got them for a 944 I don't see why they shouln't have one for the 924S.
