Well, I've had the car for a couple months now and need to spend some money . I've been cruising through the forum and checking out the different kits people have put on their cars. The two most popular seem to be the Techart and the OEM GT2. I came across this picture and I like the front end and it seems to look like a stock turbo front end with maybe a different bottom?

 

Sportec lip I beleive

 

It doesn't appear that you can get it anymore, the photo is still there, but no additional info button

yeah I thought it might be sportec but when I went to the website all I could find was performance stuff and some minor body parts like the carbon fiber wing.

 

That is the most beautiful lip IMO. It's no good for hard use because it NEEDS the brake ducts (the round intakes) to cool the brakes. Stock cars use the two small "slats" to direct air to the brake ducts attached to the lower arms.

May work we;; with GT3 or GT3 RS brake ducts though...

maybe we can get Ray or Precision Porsche to make some of these?

 

Can you get the brake ducts somewhere? Im gonna email sportec and see what I can find out.

 

That lip really changes the whole look of the stock bumper i like it!

 

Here is what Sportec said:

Dear John,


thanks for your inquiry and the interest in our products.
Unfortunately we are not able to offer you the frontlipspoiler for 996 Turbo anymore.
The mold has been destroyed in a fire at the manufacturing place and we will not
redo it. All parts of the last production run are sold out, so there is nothing I could
offer you. See the actual product overview with pricing attached.

Best regards

Brutal!

 

it's a very attractive brunett

 

I went with the MA Shaw front bumper with carbon lip. I have a black Turbo and the GT2 front end really makes a difference, and I like the carbon lip on it since it makes a nice accent. The lip is also pretty durable which is key since it is LOW. No matter how careful you are, at some point you're going to scrape since you can never be prepared for everything! I ordered an extra lip with the bumper and they gave it to me for only $175 shipped (no extra shipping since they already had to send the bumper). Total cost was $1500 for both lips and the bumper and it was another $1000 or so to paint and install it. Looks perfect!
