Nice but from the side view the straight line of the front bumper/splitter doesn't quite match up visually with the curves of the side skirts and rear splitter...would look better with the Techart style front bumper which has that upward curve on the front...

...rear splitter adds a nice touch (I'll have to add that to my mod list)

Ben, how is Eurotech with color matching? I know silver is a b!tch to get right. Does the shade and metallic grain match?

boston, thx bud. get out there and drive your car more.

redridge, thx for the positive note.

fly996, thx for the reality check but in some ways i disagree and i'm not surprised because your car and my car are completely diff in looks. there are things you did to your 911 that i'd never even begin to do and vice versa i'm sure.

i think the oem front c4s bumper with factory option aero lip coupled with the other conservative techart parts look fine. if i were to go with the techart front bumper, as i had mentioned b4, i'd want to couple it with the techart whale tail like val's and also the full techart rear bumper for the widebody 996s, but that's just too costly for what my car's worth. we're talking seriously an additional $13Gs worth of painted plastic parts here. i've just dumped $2500 on this little project alone. i gotta stop myself at some point and this is as far as my car will go in terms of mods. i'm seriously done with the car now and am quite ecstatic with the results.

i hope you guys now can have some level of faith in ordering parts from precision porsche. i took the leap of faith and i landed safely. save some $, support a US vendor, and enjoy the fruits of your hard earned money well spent! i certainly am everytime I look at my pork4s.

I would drive it more since the weather is nice but I'm still waiting for the battery. Once I install it hopefully by the end of this week, I'll be out in boston.

Looks great and thanks for taking the leap of faith with that vendor.

I am seriously looking at the front 997-GT3 bumper for pre-face lift 996. I just am not keen on the extra light area (what would you hook there?) On their site they show it filled in but recessed to be cut out. Was thinking of filling it flush before paint.
