Front Lip Spoiler

I am going for my firsr service and thinking of replacig the front stock lip as I did catch it a few times. The one I have on is 95% but I bothers me since I have a rough edge.

Do you guys just but another at the dealer or is there another better vendor to get it from?

Not looking for anything more than stock like replacement at this point since it looks like some places are just too steep to navagate sucessfully no mater what the angle of approach. If I go non stock, I want a stock like fitment.

Thanks

Yes it is a wear item. Two screws and 5 minutes and your done. You might see what your dealer will charge you because shipping can be pricey. The box is pretty big that it has to ship in.

Same part as OEM, saw no difference, 10 minute install. Keep old one for back up, you'll probably F this one up too.

Stevens Creek Porsche will match Suncoast's pricing. Usually works out cheaper for things with lots of shipping charges... (i still buy from Suncoast when Shipping won't kill me)

You'll pay a lot more at the dealer.

Most will ship it out of the box - just shrink wrap it.

Thanks guys. Think I will watch them change this at the dealer and do it myself from there on out. I will definitely F these up if I use the car for more than just cruising. Really trying to use the car more this year. Last year it sat too much!
