i'd say more like Fast and Furious than rap video. But either way your point is duly noted.

No offence to anyone who uses them.. but personally, I think that Gemballa makes the ugliest body kit for the Turbo... and TechArt makes the best... but then its reversed for the Cayenne... funny, eh

Thanks guys for all of your honest opinions from both ends of the spectrum, usually that's what it takes to put everything in perspective.

Evan, thanks again for helping me to do a clear comparison between these two kits.

Big Papa, thanks for the reminder that less is more - just keep it simple.

Rockitman, yes, I've also heard that the Gemballa kit costs a fortune, just the wide body kit alone is around $20,000...is this true?

KPV looked into it...20K sounds about right, but I'm not 100% sure on that...

I'm not sure if I want to know how much the gullwing would cost since the rear wide body kit alone is $20k already!

th e gullwing kit is not yet available...the Hamann one is 30K (incl. freight to Germany and back since no US techs to do it last I checked)...Not worth the money IMO
The Gemballa scissor (technically not a gullwing) is nicer than the Hamann gullwing IMO

ty,
dude what is up. someone ripped off my reply. talk about playing god. too much power is being handed out here.

btw the gullwing door is about $3000-5000. Hamann must be thinking supply and demand to the galaxtically stupid with 30k.

also wide body front and rear is more like $9000.

swordsman - the Gemballa pic is a 'scissor' type door (like Lambos)...A gullwing is more like the old Benz where door is hinged at top/roof
