Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's a different hood. What are you doing with all those 987 parts anyway?

I don't like the Turbo or GT3 bumper... those demand I get side skirts. (I'm really suprised PerfectLap hasn't chimed in.)

So, to address my original post, does no one know what that original bumper is? Just standard issue on 02-04 Carreras?

Ya, looks standard. I remember some guy who did the conversion, said it was expensive. He was selling a carbon fiber hood, I think thats how I found his site.

i kinda got stuck w the 987 parts, my friend was gonna get them replaced on his car, but then figured it was cheper to get his fixed than get new ones, so now im stuck w these lol

i put it up for sale, but no interest yet, i guess wrong time of year to sell these since barely anyone drives their 987 in winter

Hey All,

I did the conversion back in 2000. I have all 4 OEM bumpers.

Carrera
Turbo
GT2
GT3

By far the GT2 has been my favorite.

I did this conversion in a matter of a few hours. I have also done it on a few other cars. You will need alot of little parts...it all adds up.

Take a look!



I also have the euro rear bumper:

europwr,

Do you by chance have a list of the items you will need? I know of the following:

Fenders
Fender liners
Lights w/harness
Front bumper

Also, what side skirts do you have on your car?

Thanks,
David

Euro, that first BIG pic looks like the Turbo bumper, right?

europwr,

You car looks fantastic except the yellow headlights. I love the black/silver combo you are doing there and the lights imo are a bit off.

Awesome.

I actually created a whole list of parts and directions. I have it filed away somewhere. I am actually doing another conversion this weekend.

That first pic in this thread is just a regular Carrera bumper.

Thanks for the comments....the lights always get mixed feelings. With having the euro bumpers and stuff I decided to create the complete euro look with yellow headlights...kinda like French fogs on Bimmers.

I looked over at the garage at Renntech. You shouldn't doubt yourself. Looks like you were right all along. Your car is going to look great. I like to monochromatic look.

Were you able to find your parts lists? I am getting ready to order the parts and if you have the list already together, that would make things much easier for me.

Let me know.

Thanks,
David
