Two contacts for you:

Precision Porsche for body kits and Markski at 911tuning.com for exhausts.

Both are sponsors here.

you will find that most members here are not fond of rebadging or look-alike cars...they are generally referred to as posers...however, it is your car and you should do whatever you want...no one will mistake it for a GT3 RS anyway with the scoops on each side...you didn't say what color your car is but all 996 GT3 RS's (Europe only) were Carrara White with either red or blue accents....If your car is white I think it would be better to follow the 996 GT3 RS rear wing and painted wheel scheme (red or blue) and leave off the fake badging/stickers...you can get turbo stickers in the same colors...JMHO

If you know people that have done it, I'd start there.

$2k will just cover a front bumper cover and repaint. That doesn't cover the rear wing, which is even more.

$1500 will cover an ECU and that's about it.

I say do whatever mods you want in reason...EXCEPT leave the incorrect badging off.
