I have the Cayman S, and as far as I know only Tips comes with the the 3rd radiator.

You're definitely hardcore. I thought your car looked perfect, but now it's going to look even better.

Man, I hope you are going to have before and after pics. There must be a significant difference to go through this much trouble.

Super cool. I am anxiously awaiting the final product as a 997 front end is on my short list. Yours looks AMAZING and adding that radiator is a good call.

Ok finally got the car back from the paint shop, and have to say Im super happy with the outcome! Let me know what you guys think It's a modified Ruf bumper btw, with the front slits removed and a different top vent.

Ill have more pics, once its all cleaned up, the fender well panels put back in etc.

I love it!! It reminds me of a smushed CTR-2 sport (which was my favorite car many moons ago on Gran Turismo 2).
