That does seem cheap. I just paid around 1100 to have a new front and rear bumper painted and installed. Looks great though.

Why 4 weeks for the pain to cure?

I have had whole cars painted with very expensive and nice paint and have never been told to wait 4 weeks, let alone 4 days.

I know resins and other items have to be CURED as they are initially weak when they go off, but i didn't know that paint was the same.

If you are mechanically inclined whatsoever I would just do the install yourself. While your at it, install the third radiator. It is cheap and very easy to do.

does having the OEM GT3 Aerokit do anything to the factory warranty? Does it have to be installed by an authorized porsche dealer to keep the warranty?

A lot of people have done this on their own and it shouldn't affect the warranty in anyway.

Also, the front lower spoiler is not primered like the Aerokit version, IIRC. It's just black.

Yes you can, but you'll have to have a template to cut out for the insert. Cayman club has a good DIY article for this.

Why not just buy the GT3 bumper and paint the lower lip? Unless you already have the Aerokit bumper
