What front bumper options are there for the 997.2?

Can the 997.1 GT3 bumper fit on the 997.2 or is it going to be a different set up? I know the fog lights are different on the 997.2, which I would like to keep. I am looking at picking up a 997.2 S and want to change out the front and rear bumpers to something more aggressive...any thoughts...

The sensible thing to do is to get PAG's aero package when it comes out. It will be balanced aerodynamically front and rear.

That kit wont fit on the 997.1 but TechArt does have a package for the pre-facelift models.

As far as the GT2 Front, i have not seen anyone try it yet on a 997.2 - but i have seen it attempted on a Turbo and it DOES work.

I would just get the TechArt

So the .1 Techart bumper doesn't have the radiator vent on top but the .2 one does? That, and the black versus body-colored splitter is why I went with the GT3 bumper on my .1.

Re5pekt, your car looks perfect, simply awesome! I'd love to have this kit on my gGuards Red 997.2. What suspension is on your car? Sport PASM or lowered with springs?
