Question Front spoiler/valence?

All,
87 911 Cab w/ wide body kit. P/O had kit installed & repainted, decent workmanship-however no front lower spoiler. Additionally, no access /intake for front condenser cooling fan. My winter project is remove & repair as necessary ( numerous cracks & chips) install spoiler on front valence. I'm in North Texas, so I need to cut & fabricate "intake" for front A/C condenser. Plus I'd like to "recess" my front license plate and cover with clear lexan cover.
Question, which spoiler do I purchase? Pix attached-your advise

Let me clarify, narrow body or wide body front spoiler. Not sure which one to try first? Probably WB-sold by our host? Plz forward your thoughts!

You have a 964 front bumper and they didn't have lip spoilers like the 911 did. You could probably order another 964 turbo front from Getty, MA Shaw or Better Bodies.

Thanks? Wow what a beauty! I'll work toward that look.

The aftermarket guys have splitters for the 964 bumper, so you can start there. Is there any kind of bracing behind your bumper cover?

Bryan,
No bracing-that's one of the problems. So I'm ready to remove, repair (modify) & reinstall. A classic- while it's off-I should do the following??? So I'm glad for your input. As I mentioned, I'm in north Texas, so A/C is a must for summer driving. I started investigating an A/C upgrade, that's when I noticed that the front condenser fan had no air intake. The PO was in Colorado so A/C wasn't a concern. This is a great opportunity to repair the front spoiler area as I replace all the A/C components. I'm impressed with the "splitter" form & function, not to mention the looks.
Thanks again,
Terry
