Hi Folks,

Sorry for returning so late to this thread that we started, but Vorsteiner had asked all authorized dealers to refrain from posting pics until the design had been finalized. We received the first production piece of their molds a couple months ago, and replaced their V-GT style bumper that had previously been on the car.

We really like this new design. Fitment is spot on, front splitter clearance is much improved, and we prefer keeping the LED turn signals that we did not have on the V-GT version.

Notice that the fogs did not carry over from the original V-RT renderings. That is because of the front radiators found on the turbo. There ultimately was not enough clearance to keep them. However, there are no issues with fault warnings on the dash without them in place, and visually things look a little cleaner, so we really do not miss the fogs.

Here are some quick pics of our Basalt Black car. Higher res versions are available upon request.

















Vorsteiner V-RT rear wing is next, using integrated air scoops like the OEM GT2 wing.

That looks hawt! I think they should have made a more integral nose vent more on the lines of the GT2 rather than using the Gt3 vent though.
