Just found this new item. For those who are interested, you can now convert the front end of a 997.1 to a 991!

I think it looks pretty good.

While you're at it, why don't you do the rear end too?

8K for the rear, image 3-4K for the front, at a certain point you're better off buying a new one.

To me the front is bizarre what with the offset of the lights and ducts. The rear has lost the femininity of it's flowing curves for hard lines and straight edges. I don't feel it.

Your car, your call. I'm sure it will look great when painted. Right now it just looks like a half-finished project. Post photos when it's done.

Reminds me of all the guys with '63 stingray corvettes that cut the rear split out when the '64 came out so they looked current.

Why do you assume "while you're at it..."? I just said it looks cool.

If I had posted the headline would have read something like "update the look of your front end to a newer and less attractive 991 style".
