Here is a pic of my car with all the precision front / rear bumpers and wing:
The finished product looks perfect, on my car you can not event tell they were painted. HOWEVER it will take more work to prep and get fiberglass to look as good as the oem bumpers. If the fiberglass is not prepped perfectly your paint can look wavy.
In my opinion the precision rear wing and rear bumpers need minimal prep work and fit extremely well. If I had to buy them again I would, as the prep work is not bad and fitment is great.
The front bumper is another story. It took my paint guy days to get the front bumper right. More prep work was needed, but mainly the fitment was not great.
I have had experience with many fiberglass body parts in the past and admittedly the precision Porsche stuff is just at a higher level then most.
Taking that into consideration I still think its worth getting a oem front bumper over the precision peice. To get the precision front bumper requires too much time and effort. Its just as economical to buy OEM IMO.
The rear bumper and wing are EXTREMELY recommended though
edit* here is another shot of my front bumper. As you can see its pretty darn perfect but took $2000 in paint and labor for the front bumper alone to get it looking this way.

Beautiful car! Thanks for the info. I love the GT3 Front bumper, but I am too afraid of scrapping it. I have a steep driveway and scrape a little with the stock bumper. There is no way I could go any lower.

Thanks! Yeah if you look closely my lip is already nicked up. I did that on the first day I got the car back from the body shop

Yes it does!!!! I was looking at the one that does not require the center exhaust. I did not know they made one with it.

agreed, I learned the hard way

LOL! I thought you ended up bagging it! Yes, HotRod Dreamworks. Too bad your wing didn't have as easy fitment as the Precision Porsche part.
