$1000? Dang.....does it come with nonconditional lifetime warranty?

I'd hate to scrape it and be like "that the sound of $1000 bucks"

guess the porsche tax is pretty high....

honestly, I would rather pay cheaper for an overseas part since the lip spoiler is more of a disposable product since it will be scraped and damaged sooner than later.

looks nice. I would remove that silver emblem in the center of it. Just more distraction. Or make the emblem black.

I like it, but I think the price is ridiculous. I'd rather spend that money on a complete t/a front.

Techart front 2pc splitter is $1950 - http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/t...5-p-13431.html

Actually we are working on the price. I think we will end up being at $800 and then shipping will go oversized freight and be additional.

EVO911 I will PM you.

Nice shape to it. Too many holes for my liking though.

+1

A cheaper solid piece would have been better. Has this been tested?

We are not interested in making a "cheaper" solid piece. Yes this lip was tested in our Multi Gazillion dollar wind tunnel tester. LOL. Its on a car that cruises the street in daily life just like anyone else here would and works great.

Has the car done much cruising in the triple digits? (I would never do that myself, though. ) I think the fear of the other guys, and me, is that the car may be sacrificing downforce at higher speeds, causing instability. It's a beautiful piece, though.
