Let's get a list going! First five will get the group buy price. Who's going to start us off?

1. Chris Hanson - Chris - 97C2
2. Greg Ryba - anythingbuttime
3.
4.
5.
So group buy is more expensive than the going price? Most online prices I see are $1159 + $30 shipping.

Can't speak to anyone else's price but retail for this would be $1760. Our group buy $410 off retail with free shipping.

If I install the rear spoiler only on my .2 GTS do I need dealer reprogramming? If so is this something dealer would charge a fee? Thanks

Your group buy is not competitive with everyone's regular prices.

Circle $1154

Hoffman $1144

Harper $1139

Thank you. I will go ahead and order. Information is a wonderful thing. Go ahead and remove me from the list. For $15 more shipped, I won't have to keep checking this thread waiting for the queue to fill.

suncoast does make it easier to order parts due to their user friendly and categorized site, but they need to be more competitive on pricing. Especially when 4 places or more are selling it cheaper. How much volume they do in parts, I know they can do better.

I agree that their site is great, and hence the reason they are a go to...I'm on the fence about their obfuscation of mfg. part numbers making it difficult to compare...I understand it, I appreciate that they are in business to make money (yay capitalism) but I am guilty of assuming they were really offering the discount they stated instead of doin my homework...

What happens to the active grills when you install this bumper?

Anyone know if dealer programming is required for installing the rear spoiler on a GTS? Thanks

According to Porsche's installation guide the spoiler lower part must also be ordered so our price includes that part. We can certainly get just the upper part at the lower price, but the install guide shows two parts needed for some cars. It says to check if the lower part of the spoiler is already installed on the car before installing, so you wouldn't know until you have the upper part removed.

Dealer programming is not required for this upgrade

What lower part do you mean?

#4 below (Spoiler, lower part) is listed as possibly being needed in the installation guide. It says to check current part and see if your car was equipped with it or not. That would indicate if you need it, but the only way to check is to disassemble the rear spoiler

Could you post the Porsche's installation guide? As an owner I would never want to order anything unless it's needed. The "some cars" here really concern me.
