Default Porsche 964 - Front bumper type?

Hi, Any one knows what and where is this front bumper type coming from? I never came across these before. I want to change it back to the orginal type. Anyone has a second hand bumper in Metallic blue?

@ Kokolya:


Yes this is exactely this bumper... Any idea if this was custom made or available in the market. I just aquire this 1992 Porsche 964 targa and considering putting back an original type bumper. Can this be retrofitted to original or do i need to buy a new one?


Any advise are welcome.

With all due respect, it really looks like just your foglights have been replaced with ducts (it looks like there is a gap around them). It does not appear to be the unit with integrated ducts pictured above.

A larger picture of the bumper in question, showing the ducts, would help. Or just determine if there is a gap, and the ducts are indeed separate pieces or not.

@FrenchToast
I will post a better picture but need to go at the shop where my car is at the moment.
However i confirm there are no ducts and they can't be separated. Its is molded and fully painted.

Okay, my mistake then. I thought I saw a gap around the ducts.

Kokolyia's picture is probably what you have.

You probably can't revert it to stock easily. I imagine this aftermarket bumper does not have the provisions to hold the fog light assemblies.
