For Gerry's benefit, the car behind the car in front is a Porsche.

Nice batch of Porsches, thanks, Andy will appreciate. I dont remember the 924/44 to be on the list of the cars you're not allowed to remove the bumpers. What's your opinion, radio-Bob?

Some series / championships here for 924/944 required the rear bumper / lower body section to be retained. The do look fairly odd without, and of course if you remove the front bumper there’s nothing left.....

For goodness sake you two, it's Christmas Day!

Are you both such sad and lonely, Grinches that you have nothing better too do than worry about Porsche bumpers?


Oh! Happy Christmas lads.
