Question 997.2 GT3 bumper on 997.1

I'm going to fit the 997.2 GT3 RS front bumper on my 2007 GT3 unless Porsche's "spectacular" unveiling at the Detroit auto show includes a more aggressive 997 bumper.

I'm trying to figure out the parts needed for the conversion. Besides the bumper, fender flares, grills, mesh, lip, and lights what else is required?Radiator intakes? Retaining components/hardware? Electronics for lights?

Thanks for your help!

Design911.co.uk and Porscheshop.co.uk do these parts. If you wanna get them OEM, its gonna cost you too much, however fiberglass quality is very nice too, if you contact these shops, they will give you all the details you need to know, parts, installation etc
Good luck!

I did some checking, I'm estimating $5800-$6500.00 in parts, which would include the bumper, lip, grilles, lights, wiring harness, wheel arch extensions, side markers, control unit for front lights. Other pieces could be required, dealer activation or wiring harness modifications could be necessary, and modification/replacement of air ducts/fender liners may be necessary.

but if you feel like a nice upgrade, go for it, pictures to the 997.2 GT3 upgrade a must, I think everyone would like to see how it turned out.....
