I have a 997 S. I would like to install the third radiator. Can I install the third radiator and use the factory bumper or I need the GT3 style front bumper?

Guessing this is a 997.1 C2S? If so, you don't need to change the bumper, but you should have somebody that knows the car to do the install. There's a radiator kit and probably some instructions over at the Suncoast site. The black pastic "plug" obviously comes out of your existing bumper.
I have to ask - why are you doing this? I had my 07 C2S on the track for a couple of years and never had a temperature issue that would warrant a 3rd radiator.
You can.. just get the vent/shroud for the front that opens up. The tiptronic has it since it comes with a third radiator from the factory.

I track my car a lot. I push the car and the engine a lot. In hot days oil temperature goes above 250F mark. It never reaches the 275F mark but if I keep pushing I'm sure it could get there. All fans are working, no leaks, etc...
I usually take one or two cold down laps and then I charge again....
I think a third radiator will help. I did notice that when I use castrol 5w-50w oil, the temperature never pass 250F, when I use Mobil 1 0w-40w oil then it pass 250F. It makes sense the oil difference. However, I expect that even with mobil 1 it should never pass 250F.
yes it will work you can get the kit from Suncoast for a few hun and it comes with everything you need just remove the dummy cover in the bumper. And pick a gal of coolant from your local stealer..
