Default Hello, Just picked up an 87 Turbo

Does anyone know where to get a nice carbon fiber front lip for the stock bumper? Best place to get 968 mirrors and door handles? Would also like to add the 968 style wing that goes on top of the stock spoiler. Are there any better options?

This is the car I purchased. By chance does anyone know anything about it?

Thanks in advance! I hope to keep everyone updated as I restore and modify the car further.

With this setup, does anyone have any guesses as to what kind of power it should make?

Congrats! My 951 is very similar to yours....and I love the guys at windy city motor sports.

I have the same split second timer in my car and taught myself how to tune it myself. Search "tuner" with my screen name on this forum and you can see some pictures of how it is set up.

I run 15 PSI on my car with a 3" exhaust and a turbonetrics turbo, it makes 290 ft-lbs and 280 HP at the wheels.
