Question GruppeM Front Lip Spoiler

Hey guys,

Not sure if some of you have seen this front lip spoiler from GruppeM, I was trying to find better pictures on the net but this is the best I found.




We have a lip coming in for a client, I'll see if GruppeM can e-mail me some better pictures.

What do you guys think? The lip is made of Carbon, and if you have seen their intakes boxes and carbon work, they are truly nice pieces!

We have sold a few of their intakes to some EVO X and GTR owners, and they make some awesome boxes from the 930 to 997 models, TT and N/A.

It's beautiful, but I think I'd be paranoid about scraping it.

looks good, very oem but a nice upgrade. too bad I scrap mine all the time, Id buy one otherwise. here is a thought, make a carbon look one same material as stock, sell it for double the oem version and you would have plenty of takers.

Well hopefully it wont be super low! haha. Might have to look into that CF OEM idea though.

Looks great - if you do not drive the car

I have replaced my factory lip twice in one year. Thank goodness they are not too expensive. I would have that carbon fiber destroyed in nothing flat!

handdoc is infamous around these parts
agree, this would get wrecked

the beauty of the oem piece is that it is readily replaceable at a minimal cost

Looks nice but I think I like the factory areokit one better. It looks a little lower then the stocker.. I never scrap my stock one(knocking on wood). When I had my C2S with areokit, I had to replace that one about 3 times in 2 years.. It was a lot lower the the TT.. Both of my cars are/were lowered too..

Got a picture of Showking with the lip painted and installed on the car, I think it looks awesome!!! the feed back I got - good on clearance compared to other lips he has ran.



Let me know what you guys think!

They do ,it's the front lip for the turbo areo kit only comes primered similar shape to this one made from same material as turbo oem lip ,just under $700 from Suncoast,you have to paint it & worry about scraping the paint ,i'm going this route as the oem material seems to be able to take a beating.
