What I'm trying to get a visual of is a standard C4S or Turbo (both are wide bodies and both are .2 face lift cars) I want to see .1 head lights and front bumper installed on one of those WB .2 cars.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Has anyone ever swapped .1 fenders, hood, bumper, lights, etc from a .1 onto a 4S or turbo? I've always been curious as to how it would look. I like the wide rear and red insert of the 4s; but I much prefer the look of .1 headlights vs .2
I tried searching, but didn't turn up anything.
Help/pics would be great! Thanks!
This will not work for a turbo. Everything under the bumper is different. It should all work for a 4s. The wiring is different for the mk1 headlights but u can splice it together. I was able to run my mk1 lights witk a 2004 mk2 harness.
Thanks.
Does anyone reading this have quality photoshop skills, and want to make a rendering for me? I'd like to get an idea of how this could look in the metal.
Here's how the Boxster world does it in reverse: a 986 Boxster front end to a 996-2 front.
This will at least give you an idea on what you're in for. It's not overly complicated, you'll just be chasing a lot of parts big and small. Also - your headlight wiring harness will be wrong. If I remember, there is an early Cayenne harness that has the correct connector on each end.

Thanks. Let me clarify: I'm not planning any conversion. I don't even own a 4S. I have an NB C2. I'm just curious if such a swap has been done before, and if there are any pics of the finished results?
Thanks again. What I'm trying to get a visual of is a standard C4S or Turbo (both are wide bodies and both are .2 face lift cars) I want to see .1 head lights and front bumper installed on one of those WB .2 cars.
