Thanks... yes it did have these funny extensions under the bumper with the reflectors. One picture below from the day I got the car and you can see them. Since then they are off the car. The rear fender flairs are factory GTS flairs installed at the factory option XG8 if I remember correctly and they paved the way for the GTS model. The front flares are uniquely to the Japanese market and appear on all GTS models bound for Japan.
I dont have too many pics yet, the weather in Vancouver has been very tough to keep it clean and get some nice pics. I attach some from a recent trip to the Oregon Coast.
The color is Amethyst Mettalic, pretty neat indeed.

Thanks. No this is a Euro left hand drive. A lot of 928's imported to Japan were left hand drive.

My '91 was imported to NZ from Japan (Still has the Mizwa dealer sticker on the hatch) and yeah, RHD (which is very handy for here!) but my PO didn't succumb to the flared arch craze peer pressure.

Actually every photo of the S4 Exclusive model I have seen has these front flares. They continued on to the GTS that were Japanese bound, so I highly doubt that this is the case. The S4's usually did not come with them, however mine is a bit of a different model, more along the lines of the GTS.
