951 / S2 update

I remove the front nose of my 931 and put the 951 nose on.
Now I would like to validate the geometry with some measurements.
Please take a moment and pull the measuring tape on your car.
Measure “A” will be easy and can be done by everyone, but “B” can only be done by those without headlight on there car.
Please use metric measurement (centimetre and millimetre).

Thank you for your input

Looks like that measurement could be done by someone with a spare 951 nose piece lying around, no?

Just looking at that picture...does the measurement need to be made without the light installed? In other words, do you need to remove the curvature of the light cover for this dimension?

Measurement "A" is about 32mm, BUT if the nose panel/fender gap is different it could vary by a couple mm on different cars. Mine is pretty consistent, but my fender may be outboard a bit?

Measurement "B" is exactly 29mm.

I took pictures, but the camera angle and the tape measure, etc. made it so they wouldn't do much good. I triple checked the measurements, though. It is obvious in person.

Let me know if you need anything else.

No, I measured a model car. I figured you could scale ot up LOL.

Yes, of course, cm. Sorry, man. I was in a hurry typing, had to reassemble it to run an errand!
