I've been hooked on the idea of playing Red Faction through a Google Cardboard and did it recently with TrinusVR.

The setup goes like this:
-TrinusVR server running on PC streaming the game play to my phone's display as two identical images and receiving gyroscope movement as mouse input
-Phone is running TrinusVR and receiving the stream over WiFI
-Phone is in a ColorCross (plastic headset with 2 lenses)

The problems are this:
-Not a true stereoscopic 3D rendering for both eyes
-Low quality stream (not my main concern)

Things I've tried for fixing the stereoscopic 3d issue on the PC side:
-TriDef 3D/Tridef Ignition -- It only supports DX9/10/11 games, and RF still seems to run as DX8
-Vierio Perception -- I cannot figure this app out at all so far, but will put in some more time with it.

tl;dr I played RF with a VR headset, it was pretty fun, but it's not real VR 3d =/

Would anyone happen to have any ideas or experience with something like this?

An update on Vireio:

It will not work unless the Vireio team creates a profile for it, and their request/fulfilled profile list looks like 2008 and older Steam games.

There's also d3d8 to d3d9 wrapper

it should let the latest pf 3.0d run d3d9. (Also there's pf addon 1.2, but it might break the vr thing.)

So I actually ran across that wrapper but I was out of my depth, or tired as can be and couldn't achieve the 3d with Tridef with it. I'll be spending a lot of time with it tonight.

Is that the widescreen with correct FOV/ratio addon that you put together?

Just a quick update that TriDef wasn't able to generate a 3D image. I'll keep trying different things and see if I can get it.
