Hi there,
I am in the process of converting my 924 to the 924 CGT and last year I bought a fiberglass 944 turbo bumper from a guy here in Utah fo $50. Well now my car is in the body shop and the bumper is just not working. Before I bought it he had somehow installed it onto his 924 and ended up cutting it to match the front wheel wells. So I need to find a new 944 turbo bumper FAST! The shop is all ready to paint and they are waiting on me to come up with a new bumper. Any sources, new or used would be helpfull. I have searched my state of Utah and the surrounding states and just cant find anything under $700 .

Any advice?

Thanks so much

WN

Are you sure a 951 bumper is the correct part for your other CGT body panels?

nice sources - although I am trying to figure out how the 944 turbo bumper was shaped to fit the 924 fenders. That looks really good!
