msindi is infamous around these parts
Except on the G its part of MSRP in the US LOL
As low as some of the TTs are, I think lifting front nose is overkill...And my 996TT was REALLY low

I would most likely purchase something that will allow the front end to be raised while approaching a steep a$$ approach.

worth every single EUR,i have it on my Rt12 and it allowed me on a number of occasions to drive through places i would have normally need to turn around and find an alternative route.
btw,the Rt12 front spoiler is way lower than the 997T

It is worth every £.£££ after you had to buy your first, second or third front spoiler.

Also the ride is extremly good with the Ohlins, Swedish powa!

This is perfect for someone who wants to run a low suspension and still be able to manage speedbumps, ridged parking spots and bad roads.. You can damage alot more than your lip with some of the conditions I have seen.
