Thanks Kie - hardly a bore!
I have a good idea of how it's going to look now - thanks everyone.

I have been thinking about this mod for some time now. Does anyone have a used turbo front bumper they are looking to part with?

I can't wait to do this mod to mine. I've always envied the euro/turbo bumper.
However, if I ever get nailed for no front plate, the front looks will be ruined anyway :-(

Not necessarily--check out Curve Lover's thread on his car--he has a great mounting solution with no drilling into the fascia.

I too am doing this mod and have located a turbo bumper from Octanemotorsports for $600, and another oem on ebay for $1100, does anyone know anything about this less expensive duraflex bumper?

The turbo bumper looks so good! I may have to add this to my winter list of things I want to do to the 993!
