using the normal bumper extensions with the turbo attachment

is an affordable option, and does not look half bad. I did this for a few months while I searched for an SPG left front bumper extension. The SPG extension is lower and contoured. The difference in obvious once you view the two side by side (the turbo panel on the SPG next to the SPG panel on an SPG) The turbo panel (with the lower spoiler attachment) finishes higher at the wheel than the SPG panel. That is one reason the SPG panels have different mounting hardware than the turbo panel.
All of the extensions are still available, for now, at the dealer. $340 ea. last time I checked. Ouch.
BTW: The rear SPG panels have to be trimmed/shaved to fit on a convertible (to look right anyway).
Yet another thing to keep in mind: 87s have different wheel arches than the 88-91 SPGs. They are unique panels in 87, that do not have the accomodation for the large wheel well eyebrow. This difference makes finding an exact match VERY difficult. The eyebrows can be added, though I am not sure if the curvature of the wheel well on an 87 is the same as an 88. The wheel arch pieces are also available at the dealer, and run over $300 for the complete set, I think.
