not sure if there is a good option. some company was making a cf one which was going to be some ridiculous price. most want some inexpensive plastic option but no one is willing to make it.

Although I have a 997tt, I replaced the painted one with a black one from Sun Coast. I like it much better in both utility and looks. Had the painted one repaired and repainted, it sits in the rafter in my garage.

There are some on Ebay although I think they are made from fiberglass, not sure how they will do if they rub a curb.


Allot of them are only for the turbo bumper

i am having the same problem with my 997.1 S... i really think it would help to plant it on the road, can feel it is light over 130-140kmh, which i do regularly here in germany...

The FVD lip is very good for the 997.2 stock bumper.

This is the best I have seen out there, everything else lacks design flow. I wonder how low it will sit using Eibach Pro-kit/Tech-Art springs.

I've given up on the lip search for my 997.2

I am planning on doing the .2 GT3 front bumper and rear wing next spring.

The FVD lip is by far my favorite but for $1K, its not worth it to me.

Wow!

$1K for an aftermarket spoiler lip is just cheeky...

The Gt3 aero kit is a great looking.

The FVD lip with the gt3 wing could be a very nice set.
