GT3 front bumper where to buy??
Hey guys: well I had a little incident with the front bumber and got some scratches in it. Rather than repair the stock one. I see a lot of guys putting the GT3 front bumper and air duct on their 997's. any help on a good source for these, I would imagine they are OEM but do we have to purchase them through the stealers????


any idea on the cost? not sure I want to hear...

Thanks for the help.

Thanks guys: what I needed to hear..... time for it's 20k service coming up anyway...

a couple more questions:

what about installation how tough is it, any special tools?

would they be ordered pre-painted? guess that may answer my first question, would have the paint shop install it.

Thanks so much.......

It doesn't come painted. It's a direct bolt off, bolt on.

You don't want to order it prepainted .. its better to have the body shop color match it on the spot.

MAD916, Don't get the after market GT3 bumper, I suggested you should get the OEM. I am sure you already saw my https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ad.php?t=82860

If you are interested I can hook you up with my dealer, $1000 plus shipping that include the GT3 bumper, with vent, all the hardware & the spolier too. It's easy to install if you have a Body shop know what they doing, since it's a OEM bumper. Just PM me
