djomlas, I don't know the cost of the conversion yet. When it's all done I'll do my best to run the numbers for you. I'm quite curious myself.

David_J, as the reconstruction process begins, I'll know more about the parts. You've got the basics down: fenders, fender liners, bumper, & lights. Add to that headlight retainer, headlight wiring harness, and bumper retainer. More parts to come I'm certain, many of which I won't know the names to. For example, the yellow highlighted parts in this picture:




boggtown, I believe the only difference in the fenders from the 986 to the 02-04 996 is how much the inner area of the fender extends to the front. It's hard to explain, so hopefully these pictures will help.



Notice the space from the yellow line to the top of the logo.
The inner area of the lights are taller (they go further back),
so the fender must be shorter.


(Side note: the cost of the 2 different fenders is identical)


I, too, look forward to seeing -nay, DRIVING the finished product! I was told it will be ready by the end of next week. I suspect that's a little optimistic, but I'd rather have them go slow and get it right, then rush to meet a deadline. If I can get up there to take more pictures during the process, I'll be sure to post them.
