Parts list for GT2RS front conversion

Hello!

I would like to respray my front end as it has seen better days. Is it possible to convert over to GT2RS components and functionality (aero) with OEM parts from a 997.1 front end? Does anyone have a parts list spreadsheet or something I can use as a buying guide?

That list does not include a new center radiator and shrouds.

All in it would cost $6K in parts alone, you can have your whole front clip resprayed for less than half that ....

MBA is infamous around these parts
there have been people who did the gt2 front bumper without changing out all the radiators, etc I believe, correct? Can’t remember but I thought I read somewhere on here there’s just some trimming involved, does anyone know?

I read the cooling would be affected.

Everything underneath it is different. I wouldn't do it unless it's done right.

Some of the parts come from Germany and will take 3-4 weeks to get.

i am about to do the same. you definitely need the central radiator conversion and the belonging vents because the air goes upwards through the front bumper. some of those parts are interchangable with gt3 mk2.

Anything with 2 part numbers is different on the GT2. Parts with (I101) in the last column are gt2 parts. Notice there is no Turbo part number for the upper duct (11) ...
