Good looking car Frank. Nice color. Hows it running?

FRANKYDOOM · 05-25-2001, 11:54 AM

I know I put them up 3 times - I just need some feedback what else could be changed and what other perks there are - Im fairly new and not sure how it all works - guess confused - anyway. Car is running fine - does anybody knows any resellers / links in the uk who could be useful ???

Promise I wont post them again

Nice color, i dont really like the look of the back though, i dont know how much you could do with that but i did hear the 968 back is pretty much bolt on........just an idea

Need the hoodscoop and vented nose to complete the look...

I like it.

The stationary headlights are only for the 924 Carrera GTS and the GTR.

Those headlamps look like Nissan 300ZX units.
Can anyone verify?

Doom's car looks good... but that pic posted above looks TERRIBLE. It's not nice, it's rice...

DOOM, is yours a 924 or 944. The rear wheel um "wells" or fender are from a 924 GT.

chris924 · 05-26-2001, 11:40 AM

Hey Blackfoot,
GT-racing has the buckets and the plastic lenses. I've read that the headlights are a standard size swap, but some sort of mounting bracket has to be fashioned(???).

I am curious about the pictures that Sam posted of the 924. How easy is it to get those side mirrors? It makes the car look alot newer. Wouldnt mind doing that to a 951 when i get one.

those fixed headlights on that 924S look like a ****** saturn

DOOMs car is nice, needs a scoop up top, and the 944 turbo style vents would be nice, i don't like the 4 vents on the 931

PrerYDoG · 05-27-2001, 09:55 AM

Yes, those are the mirrors I want!

GT Racing have a set of those for sale?
