Unfortunately, we didn't manage to get over to the SEMA show this year, due to commitment and the fact we have had a busy few months, also trying to get our own build over the finish line, we just didn't have the time to be away on a jolly, albeit we would of loved a break in sin city, next year we will be in attendance if all goes to plan.

One car we would of liked to of seen up close and personal was the new Porsche 996 slant nose conversion from our partners Old & New Japan, but thanks to companies like The Speedhunters, builds like this are never going to be hidden away, with some stunning photography from Mark Riccioni, this is the conversion in all of its glory.

Old and New Porsche 996 Slat Nose

This particular 996 was built by Jason from Rotiform and we have to say the build looks pretty special, we have been waiting on seeing a black slant nose since the Kyza released his amazing black render of the old & new 997 version, the Gold centred Rotiform LHR wheels just suit this build to perfection, and there is no denying Rotiform are leading the way at the moment with the old school wheel designs being modernised, the perfect wheel design for this old & new conversion.

There is a lot of love for this conversion simply down to the fact you get to update the 996 front lights, they are like Marmite, they are either liked or loathed, there is no in-between, personally we love the 996 with or without the lights, but the slant nose is something pretty special to look at.

The kit is available to order now and consists of the following parts, with lots of optional extras that can be purchased with the build.

The old & new Porsche 996 Slant Nose

Front bumper, front fenders, Removable front fender vents, side skirts, fuel cap, rear over fenders, engine cover and rear wing assembly, front lights with lens covers, front DRL's

We can supply the kit as it is or we can supply and fit with our UK partners Reflex Auto Design on th fit and finish, the kits can also be supplied through RAD in Northampton.

We also offer various suspension options for this conversion, if you want a airlift set up the boys at RAD can supply and fit, we also offer a full bespoke JRZ or Bilstein coilover set up as well as fully adjustable control arms and other suspension components as well as a full hybrid exhaust system, with a choice of 3 piece forged aluminium or super lightweight forged magnesium custom manufactured wheels, so if your looking for a drive in drive out conversion then get in touch with us and lets make your dreams come true.

It’s been the weekend of the Osaka Auto Messe in Japan, and the old & new crew have display yet another show stopper, built by AP Garage in Japan and what an amazing Job they have done, its come out looking amazing, it really is a beauty.

Porsche 996 Slant Nose

This time they have built the slant nose for the 996 model in turbo form, and this is the Version 1 of the aero pack that will keep the rear Turbo bumper and a race style GT rear wing set up, we think this version will be a very popular one, as its more of a take on the over fender, slant nose look of the older generation Porsche 930 models, and we know some Porsche fans will be thinking, great as it gets rid of the 996 front headlights, they are like marmite, you either like that front end look of the 996 or loathe it, to be honest we like the OEM 996 front, but we very much prefer this slant nose look, who wouldnt.

The colour and wheel choice is also a different take from the last 997 build, and this is very much reminiscent of the old turbo fan style and for us this is the best wheel choice so far, in fact its giving us some ideas for our own slant nose build.

Contact the sales team for more details on this slant nose build for your 996 or your 997 Porsche, as we now have both conversions available for Turbo or non turbo models, as a fully build conversion or as a supply only.
