Not bad...not traditional...but I wouldn't kick it out of my garage for eating T-belts.

Are those 993 headlights? I know some people have done that conversion but from what I read it seems like you had to get aftermarket fenders, but I could be wrong.

I believe the car is in the NY/NJ area. Those are indeed 993 headlamps and 19 inch wheels.

The owner posted some information on 968.net about the conversion. Here is a picture of the support bracket he added. I think the conversion looks great.

A lot of work went into getting those headlights in there. I'm not sure how much Jeff drives it since he got the Noble.

lambodoors suit only for Countach. cooler would be to weld the doors completely shut.

That poor car. I expect to see lambo doors on hondas and toyotas, not on a 968. And those 19" wheels are hideous, absolutely ridiculous. This car belongs in a rap video and I feel bad for the owner.

The 993 headlight install is the only thing that is acceptable.
Everything else is worthy of a ban IMHO.

Maybe that's what the owner was going for. Maybe he likes rap, and rap videos. So what? Do you go around commenting on lifted pickups, saying you feel bad for their owners because their truck belongs in a country music video? Oh wait.... you are in Texas. Maybe that's the "style" you approve of.

Your allowed to have a opinion, but not when it has prejudicial undertones.

I was parked next to him at a car meet once, nice guy. His taillights are wired to flash like on a F1 safety car.
