The back looks nice...I'm just not feeling the front so much

yeah, definitely something a bit weird looking about that front. its like the car's got the mumps or something like that

and yet, to be fair, nothing Manthey does is just for show. everything would have been as it is because it makes the car faster (at the 'Ring). that front is the same treatment they use on their race cars, which lest we forget, won the 24-Hr race outright this year, and came 2nd to the mighty Schnitzer BMW's in previous years (despite the works BMW team having over 10x the budget of the Manthey squad).

hmm... if its a widebody, i guess the car also has a wider track. or... Manthey doing a GT3 RS before Porsche themselves did

well, if anyone would do it, its him...!

I understand and respect the functionality of their cars, but like some others said the rear is cool while the front is kinda ugly.

The Manthey site says:

Of the racing course on the road "- which is the slogan of this extensive Bodykits of both bumpers, Gurneys, reciprocal front fenders, front Unterboden, reciprocal smolder-learns consisting among other things, reciprocal side panels, front hood, tail wing with cover. The portion from high-strength and at the same time extremely light carbon amounts to here high 90%. It is the only one of its kind in the range Porsche, that on the north loop was developed and as can be prove apart from a changed optical appearance (10 cm broad) with clearly improved drift values and a weight reduction (63 kg!) to shine can. The round times and racer sequence obtained with this kit speak for itself!
