Thanks, its the factory wing on it now. Probably wont fit a 997 since it mounts directly to the lid and my guess is the decklid wont fit a 997.

Looks nice,

Whats up. Actually, dont live in Hawaii anymore, live in CT. Was born and raised in Hawaii though (hence my user name). Grew up in Hawaii Kai, Kaiser grad. Went to UH after. Job relocated me a while ago to the great northeast. Go back once a year or so to vist family and friends (and the food - always hit Zippys, Ono's, L&L and Rainbow drive in when I get home).

"I'll take a 1/2lbs of Tako Poke and 1/2lbs of Ahi Poke and a pound of Korean short ribs please!!"

"Honey, I'm on my way home...can you cook some rice?!?"

Supposedly some good lobster and crab in your neck of the woods....no hamachi or mahi mahi though.

I have the 996TT bumper and think it looks great. If I had the choice, I would get the gt2 bumper or the regular tt one. I would also go oem if possible..better fit etc. BTW car looks great.
