Sorry, did not want to scare you. Off course you can do it with your turbo bumper. They are identical, but turbo bumper has not plastic covers that 4S has, so you must buy them. All then you need now is new tail pipes, tail pipes extensions and plastic covers. In my case I needed also the heatshields, but I wanted it perfect. But first of all, find good body shop.

I really do not know. As I remember, you must change heatshield in the rear, because of the place of pipes. I bought all pieces from a company, who sells salvage Porsches so it cost me with all heatshieldes about 250 USD.

How to Retro Fit Oem Turbo Rear Bumper on a Narrow Body

I do not know if this will help anyone but I have both the stock OEM front and rear bumpers for a 2003 C4S (painted black) and a fiberglass Techart GTII front bumper with a wet carbon fiber intake (BLK), sideskirts and the rear bumper with no side grill covers (just the BLK mesh), all brand new and fresh out of the box. I am rethinking some of the changes I am going to make. If any of this stuff can help you send me a PM.
