Default 991.2 GTS front rubber spoiler?

I need to replace my 991.2 GTS front black rubber spoiler. Is it best to try Suncoast or just go to the local dealer? Also , is it very easy to snap in and any idea of cost. Thanks in advance as always!l

I ordered a replacement Sport Spoiler lip from Suncoast for $185. It took maybe 5 minutes to snap in place.

This isn't the correct lip for the GTS since it has a different bumper.

The piece needs to be painted. It looks like unfinished plastic, but it is actually primed and painted the natural plastic color.

It is specific to the GTS, I had mine done recently. If you cant find the part number I can can look through my service records.

Might seem silly, but mine seems like rubber. I am almost positive this was not painted and seems like you just order it and it would snap on. This is definitely not a painted piece!
Can anyone else chime in? Thanks

Mine is definitely not painted either, I didn't think that was even an option on the 991.2 GTS? I'm a little confused about the Suncoast part. It looks correct, but I've never seen one with a painted front lip.

The black plastic is the standard bumper lip, the painted one is optional equipment. I prefer the black plastic lip, I would suggest calling your dealer parts desk.

I recently bought one for my Targa GTS and had it painted, and I took it with me so it could be installed when I picked up my car. The Black one that comes with a new car is wrapped in bubble wrap and inside the car and since I did not use mine I would be happy to offer it to someone here for less than what you can buy it for; however, it is an awkward size and needs a big box but it is light. Or it can be picked up at my place or I would meet someone in the area (central/north FL). By the way, if you order a 4S model with the Sport Design front bumper it will come painted to match the exterior car color, but not on the GTS model.

See pic below for the part number that was on my 2018 GTS front spoiler before it was installed by the dealer at delivery.
