Not that I'm aware of, unless I am mistaken (and since I know virtually zero about the 924), since the curvature of the front fenders on the 924 make the front to narrow. But, as I said I may be wrong.

Good Luck

I know someone has done this before. I'm not sure where I read it at though. That's the S2 and Turbo bumper. To make it fit a 924S narrow body you have to make it not as wide. Hmmm... all I know is someone somewhere as does it before. It looked, eh.

Instead of trying to modify a 951/S2 bumper witch will involve a lot work & money doing so,why don't you go for the "Euro Bumper" witch will look as good on your 924S.You can always delete the small rubber pads & plug the holes for a cleaner look.Just a suggestion

that particular one is custom. I'd be interested to know who makes them too, but not for me (anymore) but the guys at 924board would be extremely interested.

ive been a member of 924board longer than i've been here. i doubt they know this car or pic at all or else it would be brought up in discussion often.

Porsche 924, you have some pretty straight forward options.

1. if you want an S2/turbo front, convert to these parts and go wide body at the same time.

2. theres a vendor that sells an s2/turbo front that fits with 944 n/a front guards, headlight covers and badge panels. Convert to these parts and wide body.

3. get either the genuine or replica front, or the 924 carrera gt front pictured and chop the middle out and paste it back together. This is what has been done before on a few rare occasions with a 924 re: the S2/turbo front.

4. buy and S2 or turbo.
