    Well, I think I am FINALLY ready to do this conversion... been talking about it for years but I think I may be ready to actually do it because my paint has been damaged after taking off 20+ year old Clear (now yellow) Bra off my car.

    Does anyone know where we can source the CS bumpers and side skirts in 2021?
    Here's what I'm working with:

    Nice spec , like the seats , great colour . I am not sure about the US , but Prosport in the UK stock a Stradale kit . There are quite a few more parts than just the bumpers and skirt skins . Front grills with rear surrounds , although you can modify you eggcrate surrounds to CS spec . Rear CS grills
    Rizzo308 I think makes an add on piece to change your Modena front bumper to CS spec .

    Thanks, Duck! I have Challenge grills front and back, I know Anexpert offered some "add on's" to your factory bumper at one point but I think that's long over at this point.

    Would love to source something in the states. Hopefully someone else will chime in.

    Out of curiosity, who are you looking at in Austin to do the work?

    Still working through that. Signed a waver that acknowledged this could happen, and not shocking for 20 year old PPF. There are a few recommendations coming already but I'm just going to take my time and figure it out. Kinda knew this day was coming but my car is and always has been a driver and not a concourse car so trying to figure out the next step. Hardly ever drive it (less than 1,000 per year) and store it offsite/swap it with others in my garage but I'll never sell it. Said another way, any money I put in it is not coming back so I'm trying to figure out what my options are from here and what makes sense for this one, given it is a keeper with that amazing gated shifter and wonderful sound at redline.

    I'd like to do a CS bumper and sides, already have "CS Style" diffuser" on the rear (from previous owner) and I am definitely not trying to go the full CS conversion route. But, since I now need paint, all options are on the table and I'd love to fulfill my dream of doing that conversation on my car.

    Time will tell.

    Okay, I have been able to source skirts and a an aftermarket front bumper "It’s made in Italy and the quality is top notch".

    Before pulling the trigger, what else do I need to consider? I have Challenge grills on the front already so I assume everything would transfer over as intended... any other feedback or "gotcha's" I need to consider before jumping into the deep end?

    Thanks in advance! Getting excited about the potential here. :)

    I am interested to follow your journey as this is something I would like to do too.

    I have seen some bumper replica on ebay for $900 but don't trust them...

    Please do keep us posted on the progress.

    Okay, updating this thread.... CS Bumper and side skirts are on order! Been wanting to do this since I bought this car almost a decade ago. Will keep everyone posted but should begin work in the coming weeks.

    Where did you source the parts and what did they cost?

    Sourced from https://www.eurospares.co.uk and under $6K for Italian made but not factory front bumper and authentic but used side skirts. Parts are at customs and should be delivered in the next week or so.

    Does anyone have any recommendations on "skid plates" for the front bumper? It is pretty low and will DEFINITELY get scraped at some point. Thanks!
