I may have my terminology mixed up, this is the front lip on the what I thought was the Aerokit front end, I hope I'm wrong as the CSR piece will probably fit. The 2016 GTS did come with the ducktail and rear spoiler as part of the package.
I believe (but dont quote me!) that the CSR front lip will slot into the same exact holes left by the aerokit front lip. The rest of the bumper, which the lip attaches to, is identical to the GTS sport design setup.
cmorales954 the CSR spoiler finally arrived. The fit was perfect and the 2X primer/paint finish is a perfect match, overall I’m very satisfied with the piece. Thanks for your input!
Is that how it arrived or did you have to paint it?

I sprayed it with Rust-oleum Painters touch 2X Paint-Primer. Cmorales954 used this paint when he installed the CSR piece and said it was a perfect match, I have to agree. I applied 6 coats so hopefully it’s durable enough however touch up will be easy if needed
don’t act based on this, but I thought the aerokit bumper was the same as sport design, just with a different front lip and rear spoiler.
Correct.
For 991.1
Aerokit front bumper is same as GTS (except GTS has the center radiator - bumper is same though).
Lower lip on Aerokit cup is different than GTS/Sport Design (which are the same front lip). Aerokit cup has the 2 little snout holes on it with the center section in between painted matte black (which alot of people screw up when repainting lips... I see lots for sale with the entire thing painted body color)... GTS / Sport Design lip is solid all the way across.
Big thanks to @cmorales954 and @Phikel for their patience and tips! Below is the final result. I think it looks WAY better than OM. It does lower ground clearance by 1.2cm (0.5inch). I decided to paint it with matching body color (for the upper half) and matte black (for the lower part) -- I think it looks more OM / GT3-ish this way. But if for some reason I have to repaint it in the future I think I will just go with full black to avoid the hassle and extra cost. Very satisfied with this. Fully recommend. Let's see how it holds up, as it is made of some type of flexible fiberglass so not sure how durable it will be.
Wow… the split color makes it look very GT3! Nice job.
Yes from up close! But from distance loses some of the wow factor. I think full black looks good too. How's yours holding up? I fear the durability of that fiber glass...
