I purchased a couple new goodies for when I get the car back...I bought a OEM gt2 front bumper and also a OEM gt2 rear decklid/wing...Once I get the car back, I'll send it over to have this painted and installed... Oh by the way, the decklid is extremely light weight! I couldn't believe how light it is...It's fully carbon!

Congrats for the good choice. I have the GT2 front bumper on my car. My advise would be to add some black mesh grills before installing it. I have only used the side air ducts (not the centre)
When I had the bumper removed, working on mesh I took a small pin and cleaned the radiators from small stones, I had collected half glass of stones

Thanks for the tip! I'll check into that when they install it!

Are those geniune GT2 units and how much ? Feel free to PM the price ?

Btw, is it a simple bolt on replacement for the front bumper or does it need any modifications for ducting and all that ?

TIA

Yes they are genuine Gt2 parts...No reps here...I bought these used for what I think was a great price...If you buy them new, it's not even worth it!
The rear wing/decklid retails new for around 13-14g's!

DAMN. I was hoping you'd say the rear wing is 2 or 3k or something. I've been thinking of buying one, but I'll wait for a used one. Where did you find it? Congrats!

I found it on another site...Somebody switched out to the techart gt street setup and used these parts as trade...They still have the gt2 bumper, sideskirts and tips if anyone want them...

Somebody is selling a new one on ebay...
