If so what was involved - do the turning/fogs have to be changed? Are the radiator ducts different? Any advice on this will be greatly appreciated.

Reuse your turning/fog lights.
Nothing has to be changed for front gt3 bumper except your driving habits I guess lol
I don't have the rear gt3 bumper

Thanks I'm not changing the rear either and don't think I will worry about the difference in down force on front as I do not want a wing so from my understanding as long as I keep it under 150mph I should have no problem. Is the front much lower - is that what you mean by driving habits?

Yep, the front will be lower, not sure where you at, here NY' s road is ugly, and way too many speed bumps.
Also a lot gas station/ parking lot entrance is so steep, always have to adjust the angle to get in or out.

Thanks, the front plate frame is from bumpshox, it's a kind of protection.
Don't forget to post pictures when you finish the job lol
