They are similar to d production, the d flares are a little more squared off. My car has the Holbert Motorsports 924H kit.

Thats exactly what that car needed. Just goes to show how the right set of rims can make the car. Sweet ride.

Yeah, the spoiler is part of the kit. Usually these kits were just rivited on but someone took the time to mold it into the body. I talked to the original owner and he said he purchased the car new from the Porsche dealer with the kit already installed.
It's nice to see that you guys appreciate the car, most people here in CA don't care for these old 924's.

Unfortunately the 924 is quite popular to poop on. What these poopers don't know is that the 9.3 0-60 and 17.5 quarter mile time recorded for a early 931 is a total bunk. Real world 0-60 sprints of 7.4 seconds for a US Spec 931 S2 and an easy upgrade path to 30 more horsepower make the 931 one of the best bang for the buck deals on the vintage car market. And on the non-turbo front after the US 924 N/A was sorted out with an extra 20hp it was certainly respectable when compared to its peers. Plus, the 924 D-Prod cars did very well around the track, capturing a whole slew of checkered flags. The 6th, 12th and 13th place finish of the 924 GTRs at LeMans was significant proof of the 924s merit as a race platform and it must be said that only 1 Porsche 935 finished in front of the 924 GTRs. Unfortunately the 924 don't get no respect but be we here like um and thats kinda all that really matters.

I don't think you can get that kit anymore. It's the "H Production" kit put out by Holbert and I am not aware that it is available anywhere. If you find a source, be sure to post it and let us know. The closest available kit is the D-Prod available from AIR.
