One of the nicest styling principles of the 986 and 996 was the low profile front end reminiscent of air cooled Porsches. Minimizing the frontal area while still allowing plenty of air to the rads was key, transitioning from the 993 look
Today styling for all new cars seems to feature as large a grill as possible. The worst cases are Lexus where they look like a Marshall amplifier sitting on a snow plow. God awful in my opinion.
This example looks like the original bumper may actually be underneath the tacked on unit. Not to my taste but to each his own.
