help returning car (930) back to stock front and rear fenders/bumpers

In the UK we call the front and rear of the car the 'bumpers', think this may be the 'fenders' in the USA?
I am trying to piece together all of the parts to return my 930 to stock appearance. I like the way it looks (and it is lighter) but for value when I chose to sell it I would like to have all the parts available.
I have the wing mirrors and now need the front and rear bumpers and associated hardware .
My questions are:
1) Does anyone know where I can get an exploded diagram of the car or something which shows what parts I need?

2) Are any 911 and 930 parts interchangeable? - the parts which are not 'wide body

3) The telescopic dampers have been removed on my car - what do these consist of?

Any help appreciated
Here is a pic of the car so you can see what I have - and am missing
Thanks

We call them "bumpers" in the US as well.

Most, if not all, of the body parts are in the Porsche PET (the link here is for model years 1986-1989 but there were very few changes to the US body components for the entire 930 run).

Thanks Ronnie that's a huge help!
Have found some old parts online here in France and some useful suppliers of the bellows and smaller new parts in the USA!
Will check if PP sells any of course!
best regards

I might have a few good used rubber trim parts that I could sell you, if that would help.

I'll have a look and see what I have.

Thanks,
Jeff

I have the entire rear bumper, but I think you can use the stock 911 bumper with just the flares that extend forward to match the rear wheel flares.

Thanks
rubber parts I might be up for but actual bumpers not cost effective to ship - I am in France
Cheers

Ben you have Ruf or Ruf look front and rear bumpers on the car which have value. You should have no problem selling or trading your parts to another enthusiast for the stock parts. Beautiful car by the way...

There is a Pelican in France that converted his 930 to a 935. If he still has his original bumpers, that might be the ticket! I can't remember his SN, but it did have 930 in it, and his name was Serge.

Edit: Found him! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/members/42611.html

Thanks for the nice comments rsrfan - think they are RUF copy - but fitment etc is very well done.

Thanks WPOZZZ - I will send him a message in case he is interested in selling parts if not already gone.

Think I need to figure out exactly what I need to make the car whole!(original)

I love the car the way it is - but I have seen how the cars are increasing in value here and in the UK but the value is in 'stock' non modified cars.

I can easily change my fabspeed exhaust to single outlet as it came with a cover for the exit.
Thanks
Ben

Hi Ben,

Doing the same to my '84 Turbo Look. Be aware that the chin Valence is unique to the 930. It looks the same as a narrow body.

An Aussie on the forum here warned me about it and even posted some pics. Saved me a lot of time, money, paint and aggravation.

I'm on the road but will search later and try and find his pics for you....pass it on if I can.

Best of luck,
Scott
