New CF front lip spoiler on 996tt

This is my FIFTH and favorite lip spoiler.

I really like how the aerokit slats look. Plus, the lip juts out a bit in a curvilinear fashion. I was worried that the slats would look wierd with the existing nose. however, I like it much better than I thought it would.

What think you all?


ps... Thanks Raymond!

Looks nice and clean. What bumper is that? Hard to tell with the lighting.

Ray's CF lip looks better than the "matching" 9ff lip spoiler did.

I thought rays looked the same (except the presence of the aero vents) but actually its totally different.

My shop said that its the X50/aerokit lip - any truth to this?

That's looks just like the piece Ray from ROTtec carbon makes. I agree that it's very nice. It's a copy of the factory aero kit package.

I just found out today that the piece also happens to be super TOUGH (but is not flexible). Pulled directly into a parking block and the lip stopped the car at 1-2 MPH! Didn't break but it did get some very minor scratches.

I did the same before and only made some marks under the lip! My lip it on my TT almost 3 years now and still holding up great!

The bumper looks good. The lip is not bad.
