Has anyone else upgraded to a turbo front bumper?
I recently purchaed a 944 turbo front bumper upgrade kit. And all i need now is the Lights. has anyone else purcahsed this kit before and what all is needed besides the L/R turn signal lenses Foglights and the backing plates with the harnesses. I'm going to try to upgrade to Euro foglights and buy the Wiring harness kit from performance products due to the fact that the euro lights have 2 lights in each fog assembly ( fog/running lights). Anybody else buy this kit or have any 2 cent's to share?

Hey Jaime,
I haven't tried yet, but keep me informed of how it goes...my daughter wants to do this to the 87 after we get the interior finished. Where did you get the upgrade kit from?

Performance products ( automotion ) offers one. The one i purchases was on ebay including the side skirts ( rockers) for an insanely good price, I guess being a night owel realy pays off sometimes. All i know is that the lights are getting expensive for this upgrade
 . I'll takes pics of the process of putting all the stuff on once i get a chance

If anyone is interested, I have a front 951 valance, with the inner bumper, and bumper shocks, that I won't be using. Open to offers on it.

Jaime,
I've seen the lights on ebay as well. They are expensive new and I can't remember what they cost on ebay but they weren't that high. I'll keep an eye out for them and let you know if I see some. Todd, Send me a pm and let me know about what you want for it. Thanks

To do this the correct way, you need the front fenders, turbo nose, bumper, bumper shocks, header panel, and headlight covers.
The aftermarked parts look okay, but just not the same cause the nose has less of a curve to it and the gaps often don't line up right. http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforums/showthread.php?t=182373&page=2&pp=15&highlight=turbo+bumper+n%2Fa Hope it all goes well for you!

Good information to know...thanks Ryan. I think she may be stuck with the original stuff. I have to much other stuff to do anyway.
