i could probably find someone to make it, 2 carbon fiber places come to mind, problem is nobody has one in the first place to make a copy of....

another thread is useless because it will follow the same timeline as all related rennlist threads:

It would need to be made from scratch I suspect. I think the 968 is more narrow perhaps? Or is that just the bay itself? If you know some people, take the concept and your car to them and get their opinion.

I still have the pictures of one of the four 968 TurboRS on my website here. Was offered for $135.000 a couple of years ago.

Must be the most expensive 944 based collectible around.

We stil are discussing (over a beer, over lots of beer)... producing the vented hood. We probably will one day, because we are planning (after even more beer) to close the underside of the car with a CF plate, for aerodynamic reasons. We will probably not keep you posted.....

That's the same car as in my earlier post. It's was/is in New Orleans and at one time was offered for $85,000. Not sure if it ever sold.
