great product, would it sag in very hot weather, due to it "melting" a little bit in extreme temperatures?

can you make an add on to the side of the rear bumper so from the side of the car, the entire kit would look flush?

once you add the lip and side skirts, the rear bumper seems a little too high from the side of the car. It would be nice to throw a complete ground effect kit, and the diffuser doesnt really count.

What other products do you have in store for us?

Cant wait! lookin good.

Lastly, what color is the actual material itself (wondering what color is exposed if/when paint is scraped off)?

Thanks for posting this, btw!
I too have an '07 997 and am looking at Techart kit. What kind of trouble are you having with your techart kit?

The front lip is very inflexible and cracked quite badly on me. I live in a hilly/bumpy city, so this may not be a problem for you.

We are still 4 to 6 months behind on this bumper.

Hey Tangfish - I'd love to see your setup in person some time as we're both in Seattle. I wonder if the lip without the side skirts would look o.k.

I have TechART sideskirts, so I'm thinking that the continuity will be ok. I'm heading in to the shop tomorrow morning to see what it'll look like on there without being painted. It came out shinier than I thought it would, so I might have the shop scotchbrite it to get a matte look. It was very flexible.

I just went down to the body shop to take a look at the spoiler lip and I think it looks great! The guy who runs the shop (which is one of the best in the area) says that he's never had a tighter fit with any kit on any car. Requires ZERO modification to seat it perfectly. Snapped a few quick iPhone pics for y'all.







I'm going to leave it unpainted but they're going to dull the finish up a tad to perfectly match the other black trim pieces on the nose. Will be done tomorrow!
