You are right...it looks very similar to the Spyder's one with the exception of an aero blade extension from the 2 side ends of the diffuser.

Agreed, plus it should compliment the side flarings of the front spoiler.

Very interested to hear if you have any rubbing issues in the front (and what camber, shim, camber plates you're running) with the tire combo and what you think of the RT660s, esp given the unavailability of the SC3R.
I’m away for most of august so 9/1 is my next track day. SC3Rs were my 1st choice but the RT660s were recommended by a track buddy running the same setup (sans brakes) as me. I had the AP package on my 991 GT3 and they are nothing short of remarkable and combined with the lighter wheels a major dent in unsprung weight. In search of the last fraction of a second.

I’ve also got some BMC air filters. Did you find one filter was in bubble wrap sleeve and one wasn’t?

I’m told this is normal packaging for BMC air filters, but can’t help thinking both filters should be in a bubble wrap sleeve.

One is in bubblewrap and the other in a plastic bag. By the way, I got these off a seller on eBay in Italy for the best price I could find, and they arrived in 4 days: https://www.ebay.com/itm/373801042274

I know on the 991 forum we had a separate thread on these as everyone was having issues with them working properly. However, I have now found one on Amazon that has worked flawlessly since installation on my 718.

Amazon Amazon

Connects very well and quickly every time, do not notice any drop offs, and I have velcroed it into the centre console perfectly.
