Congrats. It's one of my favorite mods. Loved mine, just swapped to a turbo style front bumper. But am keeping all my snub nose parts in storage in case I want to swap back.

Thanks, picked it up at Lowes in the trailer section, cost about $8, then had it powder coated. I had a steel plate cut & drilled for a backing plate and used Grade 8 mounting hardware. People tease me about having a "Nose-Ring" on my car

I think it looks better than even the stock turbo nose!

You been smoking some wacky tacky at school or what? LOL
Snubbed nose does look decent. Should have done it on my old 924S. Get a fiberglass rear bumper. They look better.

What have you been smoking? Nothing looks better than the turbo bumper.

I have factory Euro bumpers going on my 924S, had the trim shaved & holes filled.

The only thing the NA bumper has going for it is the smaller fog lights. I hate the massive fog lights in the turbo bumper. Other than that it's turbo bumper>NA bumper hands down.

I did mine last year. I like the look. I used a fiberglass euro bumper for the rear.
