Default Air ducts for front bumper

So my front bumper is coming off and I want to take the opportunity to fit some air ducts in. If someone has navigated this recently, I'd love to hear.

So far, I've see the Cult Werks in a recent thread.. https://www.cult-werk.com/en/k2/aktu...ur-porsche-964

And then there are the ducts at Design911 with the mounting hole in the front. They are both pretty similar in price it seems, any thoughts on the matter? And, if I got with the Cult Werk units, any tips on how to navigate the site in german to make sure I'm getting everything I need? Thanks in advance..

I ordered mine from Cult.
Quality is impressive, they're fast and decently priced
What's nice also is that the screws are inside the bumper. Nicer and less likely to be stolen
Here is the page to order: http://www.cult-werk.com/online-stor...e-rs-style-396

For future reference, you can email them and order via email. Their English is very good via email too.

if you don't mind me asking, how much was shipping? Really love the look of the cult-werks...as well as the FVD they seem to be very similar.

Shipping was about 20 euro or so...$155 usd total to get them to Idaho. I'm used to buying stuff over there in GBP, so it's kind of refreshing to to deal in Euro instead..big difference in exchange rate.

Exactly, , lots of parts are now cheaper thanks to strong USD (CAD in my case) and low euro

I have FVD and they look identical to me. I believe FVD stocks them in the US for $150.

I know you already bought a set of the Cult Werks ducts, but I just wanted to reassure you that you made a great purchase. Although they are a little more tedious to install, I think the hidden hardware makes them look much cleaner. I also think that the size, shape and overall fitment of the ducts are better than other RS ducts I've seen; however, it probably depends on installer, manufacturer, etc.

Will they delete the bumperettes on US cars?

If you don't mind me asking whats involved in the installation of these? To get them functional remove bumper cover and drill holes in the beam of the bumper for the rear outlets?

Many thanks,

Dan
