Interesting. How did you do that?

 

RE: Turn lights

Something like this?

 

That's what I was envisioning. Looks like a perfect car to me!

 

That looks great, but what about those of us that do not have a turbo bumper?

 

Would have to find solution for the few different bumpers that are out there, and start with one of them.

Probably the fill space can be utilized for all of them as all bumpers attach in the same way to the same 996 front. Thus, space to be filled should be same.

What front do you have?

 

Would the filler piece be placed onto our existing OEM bumpers?

BTW, I think the above picture is a great final product - simple, clean lines, and attractive. Why couldn't the Porsche designers made it that way in the first place!?

 

To not need fiberglass floated into the fenders (not easy on the front where the lights meet the hood) I would think the filler piece should be moulded into a new replacement bumper.. you would be paying for the new bumper and lighting conversion only in lieu of hood, fenders, bumper, and lighting. This may sound crazy, but the beatle lights may be an alternative.

 

ummmm .... What?

 

If I understand correctly, the filled triangle will be part of the bumper. If so, the gap between pieces will be placed in an odd place, and the triangle will be separate from the fenders. This does not sound too good aesthetically.

 

Tarzancoe, I am not trying to be difficult here and certainly not messing with you either but I am not sure I understood your statement. If I have read the previous posts properly, which is open for debate I guess, I believe any mods would be made to the existing fenders AND the bumper. Not sure if anyone even suggested making mods to only one or the other. In such a case, I think if I understand what you have written, then, Yes, the mods would not look good. The only proper Mod is what Joel has photoshoped. Anything else - not worth it.

I do have one other question though for Precision. Considering that the 99-01 fenders are only $298 from the dealership, couldn't a metal part be fabricated to fill in the proper gap and then installed by a local body shop with proper sanding and filling with auto body filler? That way, the only mod to the fender is in metal, the mod to the OEM bumper is epoxy fill which I can do in my sleep its so easy, and then the new head lights and harness to install. Would this approach take into account the slope of the head light? I'd like to know more about the slope.

 

No worries, did not think you were messing with me . Simply trying to visualize your explanation. Hard to do without looking at it. The truth is that this exercise should be done with a 3D model or similar, to effectively visualize tangible results.

 

I follow you. It makes sense.

 

I have the factory 996 C2 front.

Looks like this:

This is an interesting idea. I would consider buying this kit if works as planned.
