1) Doesn't look like a 944 bumper
2) The page says it's no longer available
3) The superseding part is suspiciously cheap

Let's compare the two ,the ECS one seem to have a wider rubber strip than the OE one plus there a ridge on top which don't belong there???

It could be a mold of the turbo rear, They have a wider strip.

Turbo strip is wider b/c it covers up the receiver for a rear tow eye.

I spend too much time on RL, clearly...

I hope this one is easier to fit then the Euro piece, I had a heck of a time getting mine to sit right and I am still not happy.

I’d call them first.

I agree with DVC, looks like a MKII maybe MKI VW Golf piece.
