What is your opinion on this Full Techart Aero Kit

So what is your opinion of the Techart Aero Kit? Specifically, how well does Techart rear wing III tie into the kit?

To be honest with you, I don't see the logic of a fixed wing for added downforce in a Cab. A GT3, maybe, if it's a full-blown track car.

My philosophy on bolt-on parts - if my car gets hit and the front bumper has to be replaced, then maybe I'd consider aftermarket. But if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Why spend the $?

GT3 front bumper looks much nicer. No need for side skirts on a 997.

I agree no side skirts needed on the 997. The 996 needed them, but not the 997. I love the gt3 nose, and want to do it, but am concerned with clearance issues.

I personally don't like it. It looks overdone and doesn't flow well.

The GT3 front bumper is low and clearance is definitely an issue. I just got one and have been trying to getting used to it. Does not help that my 997 is lowered but I really like the look. Fortunately that lower lip is inexpensive......
