TechArt GT Sport Bumper Pictures!

I was just browsing TechArt's website and they have some pictures of the new GT Sport front bumper posted. I knew that they had this in the works. It looks like the the Cayman GT Sport bumper. I hadn't seen anyone else talk about it, so here it is!

What do you guys think? I really like how it looks in the first picture, but the rest give me mixed feelings.

I bet if they added a little lip spoiler option to this bumper, like they did with the 996 GT Sport bumper, it would look better. I don't like how the points hang down. Reminds me of dracula.

oalvarez is infamous around these parts
while very aggressive in its design it's almost too aggressive. while i understand that these body kits are designed to enhance the original look, i think that this front-end's effects change the original porsche lines/design too much.

i still want to see a Porsche when i look at one.

I'd have to see it in person... .I must admist when I first saw it, I absolutely hated it, but now, I'm kind of warming up to it. I had the same feelings about the 996 bumper when I first saw it

I think it looks horrible, it doesn't flow at all... It looks cheap and overdone.

I think I like the original lip spoiler they have. It compliments the smooth and classy look much better.

I think that's the problem - the 997 is so smooth and classy that anything too aggressive will just look dumb. The 996 seems like it was more adaptable to an agressive look.
