Rennspeed references?
I've found Rennspeed on the web and am looking at their front spoilers. There was a discussion on this a month or so ago and I've found that, along with a post that says they are good people.
So far, so good. I'm interested in the quality of the pieces Rennspeed puts out. Anyone with information? TIA, J

Great people there at Rennspeed. Although I haven't had a chance to see the front splitters yet. But the clear signal lenses I bought from them were excellent.
Jeff Curtis, who recommended them, have bought some Rennspeed front spoilers. May be he can chime in and let us know the quality and fit of their products.

***CHIME!!***
Peter with Rennspeed is a good guy, have only dealt with him via email though, and just with some used parts required to rebuild my Rocket after the "oopsie" I experienced in October of 2002.
I have bought, two now, sets of clear signals from him...messed up the 1st set with the "oopsie". I referred another Rennlister to him for a front bumper cover...was it Eion?? He seemed pleased with his purchase and another friend of mine bought a driver's side door off him, yet another satisfied customer.
The clear signals he sells are clearly (pun intended?) the best deal on the market, often beating eBay's average selling price.
I'll have to checkout the site to see who's spoilers they are selling...or if possibly they have their own design?? He has sold me a set of brake ducts in the past, that are RSR "copies" and they look pretty good, although I feel they are a bit small for the holes in our bumpers...almost like a slightly smaller version of the originals...unless there's another trimpiece I was supposed to order?
When I asked Peter about this, he said they were exact copies of the originals, so who knows?? ...they fit, and look good, just don't like the gap all the way around them.
SO, at this point I might guess that whoever is making the RSR brake ducts for Rennspeed is duplicating a front splitter/spoiler...again, dunno, will check it out.

Update...
...well, I checked out Rennspeed's site and it looks like fellow P-Car owners can get a good deal on some repro fiberglass parts. Their C2 RSR "one-piece" spoiler is what I typically use, although I just ordered one of their GT2 versions.
We'll see how this one holds up.
I crunched my latest front splitter when I pulled a "Dukes of Hazzard" at Roebling.

Yup, will post pics as soon as I receive it, get it painted and on there.
Will have to make sure my new track wheels (Fikse FM-10s), and my 3.8RSR tail makes the pic as well.
My 964 doesn't look the same anymore...just BETTER!

Nice clean car paul ;-)) Did Rennspeed say what the postage will be? I fancy one of their front splitters http://www.rennspd.com/P_Detail.asp?PID=433 to be painted in Guards Red of course, so joint postage may be a good idea?
Oh, nearly forgot, welcome back.

Hi Kevin,Christer Thanks for the welcome back, I'm going to contact Peter at Rennsport when I have made my mind up which spoiler I want,I'll ask about a bulk order I'm sure Peter will be more than happy with this.Checkout some of Rennsport prices,eg;964 clear lenses at $80. Postage wont be an issue on smaller items if they are packed with larger items if you know what I mean.

I'm glad all of you think highly of him. It gives a bit more confidence as I tend to think the worst when I see a cheaper price, though I do love to save some cash! The Ruf copy looks the same as the one Ruf sells for $350, but who can tell with such a small picture.
I spoke to Peter and he indicated (on the parts I was talking about, not a generalization) that the parts that take paint require some fitting and finishing to get ready for install. The others, meant to be left black (like the Ruff knockoff), have a little "texture" (my word) but will install directly. J
