Second of all, do we mind?? Speaking for myself, of course not Your car looks sweet. Thanks for sharing

My question. Did you have to modify anything at all? That's sweet you got it to fit the 997.2
Thanks.
Yes I had to basically attach the connectors from a 997.2 lip to the top of the 991 lip. Not at all straightforward
I posted the full details here:

I have a 2013 S that I bought used. My "Pedigree" that came from Porsche indicates it is PASM w/Sport Suspension and it has the same front air dam that is pictured on many of the posts. I assume that this is the same as "SPASM"-right? I would add photos but my car is black and very hard to get a good photo-I will try using a polarizing filter. The air dam does scrape very easy but it gives very well-much better than my 350Z and the rough scratches and unpainted finish is something I can live with.


BTW, Porsche and other automakers use the word "Sport" way too often. I think they use sport in the window stickers of "sports" cars until it becomes meaningless. Sport wheel, sport suspension, sport seats, sport this and that. I think I would prefer numbers and letters that are just codes because it would be easier to compare. It kind of reminds me of "Forrest Gump" in the scene when Bubba was talking about all the ways to prepare shrimp.

The sport PASM spoilers have changed from some of the images in this thread. Here is what the 2016 SPASM front spoiler looks like on my car. Notice the air intakes on the right and left side side. This was added to create downforce.

This is incorrect.

You have the Sport Design front bumper with the Aerokit Cup front spoiler. You get this with the package regardless of PASM or SPASM from the factory.

The above discussion is regarding spoilers on the standard bumper. If a car has SPASM, the more aggressive spoiler comes standard.

On base Carrera's and PASM equipped 991's ^^

Both these pieces are interchangeable!!

Sorry, but I have to disagree with you. When I created my 2016 build order, there were two different Sport Design front spoilers. When PASM only is ordered the spoiler is different than the SPASM spoiler.

Sorry, I too believe you are incorrect the car pictured has a Sport Design front facia with the aerokit cup lip and not the PASM-S lip which is specified when
you order a car w/PASM-S *but not* Sport Design or Aerokit Cup options.

Why don't you post your build order so I could explain it better. VIN number will do as well.

So, PASM is the management system and Sport Suspension is the lowered and stiffer? suspension-right. PASM with sport suspension = SPASM.

Thanks, I have Sport Plus and it looks to be part of the "Sport" Chrono package and if you have MT then all it really does is change the engine mounts and allows you to use Launch Control-maybe changing the suspension a little more? Mine is a 2013 S
