As far as I am aware it can't be done with a standard S2/Turbo front PU as the front wings of the afore mentioned are different to the Lux/S. The front wings on the Lux/S have a cut away recess at the front lower corner to accommodate the bumper, the S2/Turbo wings are smooth and curved at this point.

There are, however, some non standard pseudo S2/Turbo GRP fronts that would work having been designed specifically for this requirement. Failing that, to do the job properly you would have to replace your front wings as well as the front PU. I'm not 100% sure but the badge panel and headlamp covers maybe different as well.
 
I know the 924 front/badge panel is different (I think Rick has a little "adapter" for his), but I'm not sureon the early 944's. IIRC, the early ones on the 944 were welded on?

I'm relatively sure www.v-zweeden.com do a bumper too. In which case ESS can probably lay their hands on it. Clubautosport will do one too.
 
Yes the early 944 badge panel is a different shape to the S2 and Turbo. I know because I bought one at Husborne Crawley for a tenner to put vents in [8|]
 
That'll be why they have the different types on the Van Zweeden web site. As sites goes it gets my vote for being the most ponderous, unhelpfull, sites I have seen in a long time.

They do all the stuff in carbon fibre as well though (+40%) CF badge panel and bonnet would look soooo good on Beaky [8D]
