+1, I've tried to ask this question before, but I don't think it is a common part Nobody seems to know, and I've never made any headway towards finding out...

ChaseN and S4magman,

It's a DP piece.
The picture above is from a DP facebook post:

It's available on their website (with two additional, but OLD pictures...)

Hey y'all,
This is such a great thread that it should be made a sticky!! I've been on the search for a good 964 for some time now. However, after seeing the backdates done to the 964 I may reconsider and look for a 964 project. I would be a nice addition to my 70 911T.

Maybe one day someone will post a backdate project series of posts. I'd love to see what it takes to make this conversion happen.

Sincerely,
Heinz

Can you post the price when you find out, their site says all prices listed but they aren't.

Yep will do!

I'm starting to really like the looks of the front splitter...I like amount of forward reach and how it's tapered to match the body width on the side.

Welcome to the forum Heinz!
I'm jealous of your '70 T. A 964 project car would make for an interesting 2nd Porsche for you.

DP Motorsport (no affil) has a couple backdate albums on their Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dp-mo...=photos_albums

A sample of their backdate work:
Mirror holes patch


Shark fin patch



Sil patches


In the end it looks like this! Amazing...

Zuffenhaus is making hard oil lines to help backdate the 964 rockers.

Have you heard back? All I got was an inquiry if my car was NB or Turbo but nothing more.

Funny, I got the exact same email back and haven't heard anything since I replied. I'm going to send them a reminder email tonight.
