Is this a 997 GT3 Cup front lip?

I've had this front lip/valence in my garage for over a year now. I was told it was for the 997 GT3 Cup car, but my local dealership is having trouble telling me exactly what it will fit...

Part number is 997 505 986 90

Yes it is. Shipping them is expensive as hell so your best luck will to be to try to sell it locally.

Dumb question, but will that fit a .1 GT3? I am in need of a new lip (learned the hard way on where not to point the nose!) I like the looks of the cup lip better than the stock .1 lip.

Thanks...

Klum- it will fit any .1 with the OEM aerokit, aftermarket GT3 bumper and obviously .1 GT3's.

Not trying to rain on anyones parade but you may want to consider that supposedly the Cup splitter is actually lower than a stock GT3 one, in other words if you had an issue with the stock one this may be a slightly bigger issue, Just My $.02

It is lower but its also a lot more flexible and doesn't break as easy so its more durable and may last longer in the end. Mine lasted 6 weeks instead of 3-4 that the stock ones last...and you can ship them cheap because they fold up nicely. Its not a big deal. Just shipped one from Boston for cheap.

PM me on a price. I need to add a few more to my stock. Fits the 997.1 GT3 perfectly. As others were saying, it is lower than the stock spoiler but it is more flexible. You can just pop this on and off without securing it and it stays on even at track speeds.
