I think the dimensions for a 987 are different so some fabrication may be required to line up all the panels. Jeph's bolt-on 986/996 front end conversion was $7K.
You nailed it! I don't know why I was thinking it was a 987, but I looked for that thread for about fifteen minutes last night with no luck. Glad you were able to pull it up. Man, that looks good.

Now that you've clarified that it's a 986 to 996 conversion, and not a 986 to 987, that you're interested in, you'll have to change the front fenders in order to accommodate the 996 front bumper and headlights .
