When I bought my car back in Jan, it came with a spare/extra front end bumper/fascia. I wasn't sure what year 944 it was from at first, as I have the rest of a Gemballa kit on my car, I just assumed the front end already on the car was also Gemballa.

I was wrong. A turbo front end was installed when the Gemballa front end sustained minor cracking from obviously rubbing up against a parking curb.

Anyhoo. I've brought out my fibreglass supplies, and I have been busy sanding and fibreglassing it so I can sell/swap for it. I have no desire to change the front end on my car. I will prime it when completed, and I will post some pictures. It would be a different kind of "bumper delete" project.

Any interest? I will post on Kijiji etc when it is available unless a Rennlister wants first dibs.

I'm in Toronto.

I'd love to see pictures of it!

Well before I get too far, this is what the air dam looked like before I started on it. Not too bad. Weather has not been cooperating. I am working outside to avoid filling my garage with dust. Rain and more rain. It is cleaning up nicely, and I'm on my first skim coats to fill in minor imperfections. I will do this 2-3 more times, then shoot it with some primer, and then it will be ready to go on to the next owner.



structural repairs complete, starting on the cleanup.


I will post a pic once it is all primed.

Thanks for looking!

I have an extreme interest in this piece whenever you put it up for sale. How much would you be asking?

Cass944

im kinda interested in how much you would want for that thing too

Wow that actually looks really cool. You could always take a mold and start making replicas, I'd definitely want one eventually

Well. I've taken this thing as far as I am prepared to go. Structurally it is sound. I should go over it again, but I've started thinking that someone is going to have to do some kind of work to mount this thing depending on the model/ year of car they want to put it on, let alone fitting fibreglass parts to a 20+ year old car requires tweeking at the best of times. I am not a professional bodyman, so prepping this for a final paint is beyond my ability to do this quickly enough to make it worth while.

I have given it a very thin coat of primer to help bring out the imperfections to help with final prepwork.

I'll sell it outright, but would rather trade for some parts that I would like to have.
I'm currently looking for:
944 turbo fog light complete assemblies (I have a turbo front fascia)
New stock or refurbished/rebuilt calipers/rotors that fit an 86 944 na early offset suspension.
Drop me an email if you're interested and want to make a deal.

Who makes that Gemballa front fascia?
Looks like what I have been looking for as an alternative to the 951 front.

Send it to me, I'll make a mold of it!

If you did make a mold of this how much would you charge for the units?
