Ben, where is that header panel from? It fits surprisingly well.
Thanks! Not sure who made this one, got it from MPD47 (Mike?) back when he parted his car. I thought he said he got it from LR, but they never made a piece that looked like this that I know of. Hard telling how much time Mike put into it, but yeah it fits very respectably for a FG piece.

According to the Carfax when I purchesd the car in 2009; I am the fifth owner. The previous owner had the car since 2007 and moded the car and used it for track days and tours only. He said it appears to have been a west coast (Calif, WA, OR) garage queen most of its life by the previous owners and it has rarely seen rain, hence the low mileage. The reason he was selling was he was tired of 951's, as this was his second one and had a deal lined up for a Cayman S. The local Porsche shop that did the mechanical inspection for my vehicle registration said the car is like new and mechanically tight; very shiny original paint for its age, except the nose panel which shows evidence of a repaint; no rust anywhere and all the rubber weather stripping and hoses are still like new; a very good find.
I saw your car at the Dundarave Porsche show in West Vancouver, I can vouch for its condition. We chatted for a bit, and I have to say it's probably the nicest 944/951 I've seen in person. Great buy.

Here are a couple pics you might like, I have them in higher resolution if you want.

Purchased it last year with 48k miles, it came with the Fikse wheels, 4" Lindey exhaust, DP waste gate, manual boost, Autoauthority chip and Weltmeister sway bars. Over the last year I put on Bilstein Cup shocks and springs, removed the rear torsion bars and solid mounted the torsion tube. Turbo S front spindles and control arms; big black calipers and 993TT rotors with aluminum tophats; braided brake lines; and adjustable camber plates. Installed a wide band O2 gauge, 968 mirrors and clear turn signals. Currently saving up for timing belt replacement and engine mods.
NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!!!!
