    Bumper guards questions

    Whats the difference between the "wide" and "narrow" definition on the front and rear bumper guards?
    I have a 68 912 and not sure which to put on. Thanks !

    Wide deco is referred to as the "S" version which also includes the taller side rocker trim than ran the full length of the car (wheel well to wheel well). The narrow trim which was standard also matched the the narrow side trim which was shorter and ended before the torsion bar cover.

    Right. The guards themselves are the same size and shape. Just the fronts are cut out to go over either the narrow (912, 911) or wide (911S) bumper trim.
