Default How to install porsche 911 GT2 body kit
How do you fit the Porsche 911 GT2 body kit? Do the stock fenders have to be cut back? Does the Porsche need to be a "wide body" like the Carrera S or did the Factory GT2 start as a wide body?

Line them up and drill/cleco, then sawzall.
FVD has the OEM parts.

GT2 was from a WB
RSR was from a NB

Like Calvin said ^^^^^

Its an easy peasy job

The rears need to be cut way back, as do the fronts - its a scary feeling taking a saw to pristine fenders..... Not for the faint at heart.

I love the look, but the yellow doesn't look as good as other colors.
