New motor has changed bodywork schedule...

In the quest to cool a 3.6, I have decided to try a front mounted B&B cooler (perhaps with a fender mount Carrera cooler in series).

This will require a new bumper cap. I have searched for pics of a SC Targa with Carrera tail and RS bumpers. This is the closest I can find. I would appreciate any comments or ideas. Thanks

Bill Verburg has something pretty close (Ruf front bumper? Rubber whale-tail).

I have that front on my coupe and love it but it's a little low and takes some getting used to. I recently aquired a wide-body targa project and I plan to install the wide fender version on it. Which is to say, I like the look. I haven't been able to find a Targa pic though.

I like this one


I have never been a fan of the IROC style bumper cap(too busy IMHO). The one pictured will be more efficient at the track due to the splitter but will also be more vulnerable on the street to parking incidents. As for the tail, I strongly urge a carbon fibre replica of some sort(I like the RS America tail) for the weight savings.
