Oh wow, you might've just saved me $300 for a fiberwerks rear bumper, Michelle. I thought about that but kinda somewhere along the way decided it wouldn't work.. guess I was wrong. Of course, I'd still need the turbo valence..

That actually looks pretty good...You got any more angles of the bumpers? Nice paint.

Here's my in-progress pictures. I filled the holes today. When I went out to sand it down it was pouring, so I'm a half a day behind now.

Looks great leadfoot, does the turbo not have caps on the ends of the rear bumper, all 1 molded piece? It also looks like it doesn't stick out as far as an N/A, but I might be crazy

You are not crazy... This is not a Factory Rear Bumper but a bumper from GT Racing. And yes the bumper does not stick out as no where near as far as the stock one does. If you have a N/A 944 and do the front bumper mod, and add this bumper, your front bumper and rear bumper will stick out the same. I measured it once and the two were within about 1/8 of an inch.....

Ah.. I was looking at the Fiberwerks rear bumper. I like it quite a bit, and I think I'd have an easier time mounting my rear license plate since it's flush with the back, but I really like that bumper.

<a href="http://gt-racing.com/catalog/gtr944.htm" target="_blank">http://gt-racing.com/catalog/gtr944.htm</a> Is that part 230?

That's the one, Just be sure that the mounting bracket's are molded in.... I am almost 99% sure that they are. It's just that I have seen this style of bumper also without the Bracket's molded in.
