Here are some quick pics at work today. Sorry it's been raining non-stop here in Seattle
it will look 100 times better with the more subtle lip!!! i think your making the right choice by switching to it!

Best looking modded 997 I've seen yet - nice job Kevin!

Question, I'm looking for a front lip like yours for my 08 Targa 4S - any recommendations?

Thanks~ For the .1, the best bet is to upgrade to a GT3 style front bumper, or order the GT Cup bumper directly from GMG. I don't think there's a lip that would replicate the GT look on the regular .1 bumper. For .2, FVD offers a nice lip that would do the job.

Do you know of a front lip that doesn't require me to upgrade?

Installing the Rennline front lower mesh screens, finishing off with the GT3 front conversion by installing the upper mesh screen, and installing matte black Techart side mirror trims today! Pics to follow.

GT2 seats arriving today and Rennline fire extinguisher arriving next week. Plan for installation on Thursday next week!

thats actually a gt3tek front lip. FVD resells it. gt3tek is currently running a 25% off special for 6speed members so you can get a pretty good deal on it now.
