Want to know if I can fit the 997 gt2 front lip on a 997.1 turbo. I was told no. Can anyone confirm this. Thanks for all your help with this.

But the front clip is all the same, no? The rear quarter panels are where the wide body flares out.

I have to admit the picture in my mind was of the rear clip not the front.

the bumper for the gt2 and turbos are different and so are the lips. You’d have to swap bumpers which I believe are interchangeable.
