sometimes i like sometimes i dont...getty design know their ducktails. but after doing so many mods to so many cars i sometimes tell myself....after all this, isn't the original look better??? i answered yes on 2 previous cars which i ultimately put back to original...but as we all say if it looks good to you that is all that matters. it looks good to me too. sometimes, hehehe.

aproo is infamous around these partsaproo is infamous around these parts
It's a 997.2 based on the lights and i was wondering where to get that rear bumper as well..? I see that quad exhaust set-up for 997.1 rear bumpers but have no idea who carries the bumper for 997.2.

If anyone has information, please do tell..!

Is that a lip on your factory 997.1 bumper? What/where did you get this? I've been debating going Aero for a long time, because I love the look of the added lip. Costs??

Thanks,

Thanks Gonz +rep

See this is where I run into my issue. ROTTec lip is 700, the Techart is 1000. I could realistic swap and paint my bumper to the Aero for that much. Why can't lips costs what they did when I owned a BMW!!

Thanks,
It is indeed a ROTtec carbon fiber lip on a stock bumper. Cost was around d $800 a few years ago. It has held up really well despite all the scrapes it has endeared.
