I vote this look........BUT aren't those custom made side-skirts?

Here is another pic of the front lip for you.....




Wonder IF this car would look better with the turbo front bumper????

BUT on a serious note.......the two looks you are chasing(voting on) are completely different!
The Techart spoiler is more subtle while the GT3 front looks more race(y)!

NOW the turbo front and the GT3 front I would classify as having the same race(y) look....

911 S is infamous around these parts
i would say go with the techART since u already have the techART sides.. and with ur HREs it would look perfect, check out the customer's gallery on sharkwerk's webste, there is a silver C2S with nearly identical wheels and the techART kit.. should help u make a decision..

GT3 with lip and the top grill as I really think the grill breaks up the monotony of the front bumper. The addition of the grill would actually work with the stock bumper but the GT3 front end is one of the best Porsche has ever done IMO. Make sure you show pics of the finished product whatever you decide as my car is the same color as yours and I enjoy seeing the exterior mods and wheel changes in my color.

YUP...only it is NOT the wind! The cause of 'Hair-loss' is from being married,owning a Porsche and getting suckered into doing MORE projects to the car!

I am just in Awww over how many of my 'friends' push/twist and convince me to spend MORE money on this car......you guys suck!

On a side not though Jim....I still have WAAAAYYYY more hair than you.....

i favor Techart for Cab. If you go gT3, you need a wing in the back. Your car looks great as is though.

GT3 all the way, just a little warning, it's going to be low and hard to drive around especially if you lower it.

You bet... and there's many more here:

It's a tough call. The GT3 is my favorite front end from the factory ever.
