Need a few questions answered.
My Porsche is a 91 C2 cab with an August build date.
I ordered H&R greens
I ordered the new Koni adjustable (8741-1541) front
I ordered the bilstien for the rear (would have went koni's, but they do not make them for my build date)
I ordered all the plastic bits and pieces as discussed in another post (thanks for the info) below.
964-341-511-80 2pcs
928-612-409-00 2pcs
928-612-531-00 L 1pc
928-612-531-01 R 1pc
999-591-931-40 2pcs
I am looking for the front and rear bumps stops and the front and rear dust covers?
I see many of you were able to get blue dust covers?
Where did you get them?
How much?
What are the part#s ?
Also, I know many use bump stops on the rear and many don't. What is the consensus?
Also, how much did you cut from the front bump stop?

I was told anything with a date before 10/90 takes the old struts? My car is a 1991 with a build date of 08/90
How do I tell what is needed. This will suck especially since I had them delivered already.
Does anyone have a pic of which is old vs new?

My car is indeed the old version. So that is confirmed.
I definately called a few places and they all agreed that mismatched are 100% fine. I wanted the adjustability up front. Thus going with the koni`s. I had no choice on the bilstiens for the rear. Not overly happy. if I dont like the setup I will change the fronts to bilstien in the fall when the car goes in for its widebody conversion.
All I need to do is order the bump stops and dust boots.
So how much of the bump stop should I cut off the fronts
And should I use the bump stops for the rear

So I exchanged the Konis for the Bilstiens all the way around. I am just waiting for the new struts. I was NOT impressed by the new Koni adjustable shocks at all. No spanner nuts, they just thew a sleeve on the struts.
Question for the guys who purchased all the little bits and pieces?
900-387-024-01 4pcs (bolts for the front shox) What did you pay for these bolts? They are trying to charge me $18.00 a piece. This is highway robbery.
