I need to see a better picture of the GT2 bumper, but that looks good.

I had this same thought before I saw it in person. The fog lights and led signals really killed it for me, but in person I didn't notice them as much as I did on a screen....especially the led's. BUT I still think they could have made it flow better.

I still think it should look like that p-shop someone had posted here months back. it was also submitted to the spyshot website, the pic had a silver car with black background. that Bumper was perfect for the Turbo.

Above pic is the best one so far.

I think the GT3 front and wing both look better than the turbo. Integrating it may be a problem on a Turbo. The GT2 front end will probably be an easy change and the better way to go. I am planning on it once I get my turbo...in a few yrs.

Can anyone photoshop the RT12 bumper on the TT for comparison?

I really can not understand your idea...a GT3 front bumper on a 997 TT...strange...looks like it don't fixes the TT cause we don't have the rear GT3 spoiler

i wasnt sure if i liked the new 997tt front bumper as well. You have to see it in person. I love what porsche has done to the car! I used to be a die hard 996TT fan. Although I would like to see the GT3RS front on one just to see... has Techart or anyone else been developing any aero parts for the new 997tt yet?

I am sure there are parts in the making. I would guess we will start seeing stuff appear within the next 6 months.
