I believe it's a TechArt spoiler. Looks great on the car.

Wow, great find! Yep, that's my baby. He said he did a lot to the car....and it's even more than I imagined. He did the bumper himself, and it looks completely original. I'm going to be super paranoid about this front bumper getting damaged now that I saw how custom it is. lol. The paint job is also great, I didn't even realize it used to be silver. Thanks for sharing the video!

Yeah from a 996 number to a 997 to a 991 bumper. That car has had some face lifts. What's even more amazing is it looks like he did all this in his garage.

I guess everything in Hollywood gets multiple facelifts!


He told me he was good with the plastibond and that he did the bumper in his garage, but I had no idea. He also cut the back end off of that yellow Hummer and made a custom truck thing. Again, I'm really happy about this purchase. He even gave me a new $700 dollar alarm/push start button with a custom made bezel.


Now that the facelift is done, I'm going to get the rear-end done. lol. I'm going to install the 997 seats tonight!

" I like it because the factory spoiler can still deploy and when it's raised up, it is almost level with the other spoiler, so it combines them into a super spoiler."

I thought that's what it looked like...man I like that thing!
