Porsche 996 Turbo Bumper & Grill

Kindly,

I just hit something on the freeway and will be needing a bumper, grill, lower rub spoiler etc.... Sad :-(

What options are there for a BOLT ON upgrade?

I'd love some advice, vendor suggestions, personal experience and pictures etc....

Thank you all so very much!

Since you are in LA, you should probably look up Precision Porsche. They are local and make a good quality GT2 bumper or Techart bumper

+1 for me too! Love their Strosek style hydraulic wing and factory aero look front lip.. Tony really cares about his product. I suggest you buy, install and paint under Tony's supervision.

The GT2 front bumper isnt technically bolt on is it? I thought it requires some modifications to vents/ducts/mesh-grill. What about that Techart front bumper is that completely bolt-on or is anything else required?

Instead of bumping 3 old threads, perhaps you should try using the search function or give techart a call?

Question

^ I actually tried searching, but I never thought to give techart a call. Techart is out of the question though since its fiberglass.

dhahlen, i'm sure you've researched this...is there a good guide somewhere online as to what the GT2 front end conversion entails?

The only thing really bolt on is OEM. Everything else will require some fitment adjustments.

There is a OEM bumper (artic silver) for sale on Ebay in the LA area. Garden Grove I believe.
