Default 987.1 S

Hey I have 2 questions.

1. does anyone know of a small lip for the front of my car. Ive looked around and everything looks too thick. Techarts is cool looking but too bulky. I was hoping for something smaller. If you guys know one car you share and post a pic if possible.

2. Can anyone tell me where this person got this wing? Ive been trying to figure it out. Its not stock and I cant seem to find it. Thanks. [IMG]

Sorry, can't help with the first question about a lip since my road conditions locally won't allow me to lose the clearance.

For the wing, I believe you are looking for these:

Do you know if the 987.2 front bumper will fit on the 987.1?

I think the fenders, bumper, and headlights are all different on the 987.1 and 987.2. I think in the end it would be cheaper to go with an aftermarket setup.

I think so. Main difference was the DFI engine. Right?

The front bumper from a 987.2 will NOT FIT a 987.1 UNLESS you replace the front fender panels and headlight assemblies.
Those parts have different dimensions and would also have to be updated to use the new bumper.
If you wanted to go to that extent you could also consider updating to a 997 style front end, with new fenders and headlights.

Any thin front lips for the 987.1? Anything as close to being as thin as the 997.1 RS front lip

I once put the special edition RS 60 front lips on my 987.1. It is the same lips as in the 987.1 sport design package. Aggressive yet subtle.

You can buy a CF splitter from Bodymotion or fit a 996 Cup splitter. 996 Cup splitter needs slight modification to fit IIRC, i.e. it's not an exact fit.
