Looks very Strosek based and jacquemondish... Maybe a Jacquemond reseller?

Overall, a very sleek look to the whole car. I like it. I wonder what it would look in silver/pewter/linen? I really like the mirrors.

Demec is Finnish company which does tuning mainly for Mercedes-Benz. AFAIK they at least sometimes do their own body parts. Red 928 does look a lot like Strosek style though. Picture is very likely taken in Finland as there are block heater electric outlet box mounted on the wall and on poles at parking lot. These are very rarely in use outside Scandinavia.

Yeah, those mirrors would be good for a track car too. I think I've seen old 911s with mirors like that. Wonder what the source is. I'd like to put them on my 79.

I have to confess I like those mirrors too. Anyone know a source?

I like the car, except the headlights.

Best body kit I have seen on a 928. I am pretty sure it is a Strosek as I was told this one is...

Resembles this 87 Strosek gull wing in the body & headlights at least. Looks nice in red or silver... even with the goofy headlights

Since a teenager (now 37), I have studied the body kits available to 928 owners. MGW-Fla suggested that the 928 is a Strosek design whereas others suggest Jacquemond. I believe the correct answer is both. As I understand it, Jacquemond purchased the molds from Strosek years ago and have since been making some of their own designs along the way. I don't believe Strosek offers a 928 body kit anymore for this reason. Anyone selling one would be offering old inventory. The mirrors in question can be purchased from Jacquemond as well. Although I may be wrong about the Strosek-Jacquemond relationship, I believe I read it somewhere online a few years back.
