Very well done. The panel gaps are good and the car looks evil!


Cheers Alex :) Panel gaps are much better since we've adjusted them. The top two were how it was before we did them.

Haha. I thought the gaps were not quite good enough on the first photos, but I didn't want to offend you, but I also didn't want to say they were excellent, and lie! I knew you said that you'd improved it.

Thanks,
Headlights are golf mk1 aftermarket units, they are 99% bolt on , big improvement in visibility over the originals.

Not really , it's a very cheap projector style lens but not a real quality projector. I got them very very cheap so i don't care too much and at least i can see now at night unlike with the originals.

You need to cut away a straight edge from the top of the golf mounting frames in order to fit the headlight covers , or you can use the original mounting frames . Looks like porsche did the same thing because the originals look like they were also cut and not stamped directly like that.

Thanks,just trying to catch up with yours :wink:
Since i use mine daily the manual mirrors don't offer much visibility so i converted to corrado mirrors ,i think they suit the 944 shape perfectly . I see them as a combination between flag mirrors and 968 aero mirrors ,not too little not too much just perfect ,also the visibility is even better than flag mirrors.

After having a 968 rear conversion sitting in my garage for many years I finally bit the bullet and here is the result, including a full respray by C & N Customs who did a great job.
