There is a place called wicked motors aparently having them made. they make the gt2 nose with upper section that fits the 996. I havent seen anybody else selling them. I suppose they are haveing some mfg make them for them , maybe exclusively. Im pretty sure they are fiberglass or maybe the stuff called duraflex.

It's like suddenly being in a Honda forum....epic poseur.

At least put the proper Turbo/C4S headlights on the "GT3" look
