Who makes the best replica GT2 bumpers and Techart replicas? I am thinking of replacing my front bumper but don't want to pay Techart prices nor relocate my front radiator for a GT2 bumper... Obviously I would like feedback on the highest quality items out there besides OEM and Techart.

Looking for cost effective options...

What about the techart replicas Vividracing sells? They use them on their 996tt and the kits look good.


http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/i...4217_4218_5271

Finalizing the outside, we wanted an aggressive aero kit, but not something to over the top. We hooked up with a company called Precision Porsche. They have replica aero kit products for most Porsche models. They got us this TA Style front bumper, side skirts, side vents and GT2 rear wing. The front bumper included the brake ducting, lower lip, and vent. Perfect fit and amazing quality. Side skirts fit well, needed some love to get them to adhere to the body, but once done, very hot! The GT2 rear wing changed the style of the car immensely. The more aggressive tail simply took that stock look to another level. Some modification was made to the underside parts to bolt the fan on and it did require a harness for the wing light. The complete Aero Kit package retails around $3800 which is several thousands less then the real deal.

Techart front, the look of it with a nice drop and wheels is menacing!
