Painting and installation cost on a GT2 style front bumer

Hello - i am considering purchasing a GT2 style from bumper in fiberglass. I havent decided exactly which one, but probably one from misha911. For anyone who has had this done to their car, how much was in painting and installation from the body shop?

thank you...

I had a Precision Porsche GT2-style front bumper and rear wing/deck. Total cost for both was $2400. That included just dropping the boxes off at the paint shop, fitting, finishing, and painting. Hope this helps. You can see the pics at my thread, "Just bought an '01 996tt"

Do you want the GT2 nose to be functional? If so, I'd go with the OEM unit and pieces. for proper radiator ducting. The price is steeper, but well worth it.

Just the body shop work. No parts included in price.

Can you use gt2 ducts with any of the aftermarket bumpers or are aftermarket bumpers designed to use regular turbo ducts?

I got an estimate from the best Porsche body shop here in ABQ and they quoted me $950-1300 for paint and installation of both a GT2 replica front bumper and GT2 replica decklid.

Depending on the product (if it needs work by the body shop), prices can range from $900 and up.

Let me know if I can help with pricing the front bumper for you.

The OEM bumper ducts will not work on the TA fronts. Some people have trimmed the OEM ducts on the GT2 front though
