Porsche Crest Options?

I have a ’76 911s and I am in a mood to modify. What I would like to do is add a tale and a front spoiler. What were my options on a ’76 911s US car.

Thanks

Hmm, only guessing here, but I believe ducktail and early turbo/carrera tail, maybe one of those all rubber tails that is shaped like the early turbo. And for the front the regular lip spoiler.

I would love to have a “duck tail” but I think they were only used up to ’74 (correct me if I’m wrong). I am mixed on using incorrect parts but I could use some input on this?

Please tell me about your bumper conversions and what was involved.

Don't worry about using incorrect parts. Lots and Lots and lots of people have put ductails on later cars, especially the bellows bumpers cars. I have even seen on this site a 993 with a ductail (it was actually pretty cool).

Ducktails were available in '74. Here's an original article posted here about '74 911's, one with a ducktail.
