Who says Strosek is not in the business of making 928 body kits anymore? AFAIK they will make stuff for you if you contact them:

Design Jacqemond...or something like that...produces a few variants and I think the front fascia on the blue car is theirs. I don't recall seeing window delete panels though. I think 928MS was offering some of their pieces way back when.

Found a silver one in another corner of my collection of images, maybe the one you remembered. Has Jacquemond stamped on the image. Jacquemond was still in business a few years ago. I would search here for recent activity.

Keep in mind that, like most body kits, they are not plug-n-play. Besides the initial cost outlay, there will likely be lots of labor to make it fit "right" and blend in.

Yes I know they were both still actively in business certainly up to a few years ago. Seemed both will mold any one off pieces - but it may take a while to get in line for those. Slim liklihood of them having just what you want in stock. Certainly not cheap, Jaquemend is slightly cheaper than Strosek. No love lost between them - Strosek believes Jaquemond copied their stuff...

I purchased a Jaquemond Med Aero wing - well made and good fit.

All pictures of why car designs are best left to the car designers.

I like that front bumper. That would look great on my car with the dual exhaust cutout that Jaquemond has on the rear.

Rather than deleting my rear quarter windows, I wish someone would make a solution for making them flush with the body, so we could get that modern "frameless" look on our cars.

This one has some really interesting ideas.

The the front is a bit long for my tastes, but it does have a true "Shark" look - as if it would want to bite you in a second.

The rear is out of balance with the long and "heavy" front.
