Hey All,

I picked these up yesterday, I was wondering if anyone had seen them before...they are wide.

Do you have a better pic?

Are they meant to go with side skirts or something ?

Off of a Poraga kit?

I think they are from the 935 kit

I have seen a bug like this in america with these guards on em...I will try and find the pic

Aparently they are called testarossa gaurds, and yes they are supposed to have a matching side skirt to make the intake....not too hard to fab up I suppose.

I will get a better pic...I will also probably sell them if anyone is interested.

With a bit of work they could look alright on the right car. Not with the rest of the kit tho...

Yes that was what I was thinking, forget the rest of the kit and actually cut the rear panel and bend it in starting at the point of the guard.....like the maserati on the cover of the new wheels.....then duct it up through the fire wall to whatever you want..... food for thought.
