Wink $ ?

I keep a eye for them on ebay sometimes there are people that take them from new cars during PDI and put them on ebay.

I paid 150.00 for a box of three last time , I put one on and had the other two sitting after paint to cure before clear film is installed.

Make sure they get primed with bulldog ( primer ) and take the torx screws out of the side mounts and replace with a phillips screw so you can remove easier ( if you carry a small screw driver )if **** happens like me and you need to remove for alignment or to put on a flatbed truck.

Iam going back to stock springs since I go to various different places and iam on my third lip in 14 months

Yes, you do need to drill those rivets out and take that bracket out. Use two new rivets when putting on the new rear lip.

Jason or Gee Bee: where could I get a set just like Gee-Bee's front, rear and sides? (same as your sides Jason, didn't know if you have the same front/rear?) Can I order these painted white? Jason, who could do the install for me up here (oh oh, I think I am finally getting ready to start modding....noooooooo!) can you post or pm me with specifics on how and where to order? Are they special parts/number or specs?

Gee-Bee, I recommended that she get her parts from Sunset Porsche since they're down in Oregon. Suncoast is down in Florida so shipping would be considerably higher. I've compared prices between the two and they're comparable. Beats even Carrera Motors too.
