I might be wrong, but the Suncoast lip is nothing more than a stock front lip from a Carrera S with PASM. Is that correct?

It's pretty hot too

Tom,

I love the look of the Werks 1 lip for the 997. Can you sneak us a peak of the lip for the 991?

Pretty please. Just a little look.

Marc

Hi Marc...I would LOVE to show you guys a sneak peek of the few prototypes we're working with. We've basically narrowed it down to 2 designs, which are really similar with just some very subtle differences.

But...unfortunately I'm not gonna show them. The last thing I want is one of the notorious vendors on here copying it and releasing it before we do. Sorry...but you'll have to wait.

There are several carbon front spoilers for the 991 out there. Most are the same shape as the factory one just in carbon. You will have to Google them as they are not sponsors of this site.

Our 991 front splitter is not listed on our website anywhere. Even our 997.1 and 997.2 turbo front splitters are $2000, so I'm not sure where your $3k number comes from.

The reason it's not listed for sale is because we've put it on the back-burner for the time being. Reason? We were just having too many issues finding a reliable and secure way of attaching the splitter to the front bumper of the 991. The prototype you see below used a combination of hardware and adhesive...but we're not comfortable relying on adhesive to secure the part. So...we've gone back to the drawing board to find a more reliable way to attach it. If you've ever seen one of our 997 Turbo front splitters on a car, you'll know that we pride ourselves on "better then OEM" fitment. So this 991 splitter will be released when we get the fitment perfected. But don't hold your breath...it may be a little while longer before it's available. Sorry.

But you do list a rear diffuser on your site for $3,000. That is probably getting confused with a front lip!

I like the fact that it is full width!
What bothers me about my SPASM lip is that it is not full side to side. It looks a little bit like the goatee license plate of the VW micro bus character in Cars.

Was taking off the factory lip simple? Any tips for removal? thank you
