Gentlemen.
Super interesting thread. Nice builds. How did U guys solve the front bumper bar Question? Did it end up with the bar delete,? Did anyone go for the 993 aluminum or the911 aluminum bumper bar? H |

sorry mr gilbert if i offended you but the front fenders you have look like 993 fenders but are not unless you put spacers on whiches raises the front of the hood, also a 964 style front bumper will not work on a 993, on the rear you still have sc type tail lights, the rear quarters and openings for the tail lights are different between the 993 and sc/964 tail light openings. unless you cut the opening out the best you can do is 964 tail lights, my sc with 964 stuff, Kevin

No offense taken, and i am not Mr Gilbert, its Don, or dude or whatever, I have 993"""style""" fenders, and I want 993 taillamps to match my 993 headlamps, why wont they work? I see them on every other conversion, what has to be done to make em work, thats is the question i asked in the first post. the yellow car with the rs wing at the top of the page has them, and its an SC, so i know it can be done.

look at the corners they are round, i believe the width is way wider too. i just think itll be a major rework to get them to fit, the whole rear fender and tail light shape is different, you will be suprised at the change up to c2

I dont like the c2 lamps. I just searched and found a dozen or so sc, carreras, and other early cars with 993 taillamps. How much hacking is involved Kevin.

Unless you are a good metal or glass guy, forget about 993 rear lights without new quarter panels, bumper and center reflector panel.
All the SC's or anything earlier than '95 that you found on your search have been fitted with the right parts to accept the lights. They have been properly updated. I've never seen an earlier car with just the tail lights of a 993 and no others related updating. It'd look kinda strange IMO. Quote:
