What are you talking about?! It is barely visible and only for protecting the underside of the front spoiler:

It really protects bottom of the bumper and the lip.
I saw it from Bob's and bought them as well. As Bob said, it's almost invisible and protects potential expensive lip purchase or bumper touch ups. =)

You guys do know, the non-painted pieces of the car which are separate pieces (IE - The front lip, side skirts) are considered a consumable, wear and tear item by Porsche?

Yes, but believe it or not, the matte plastic lip on 991.2 GTS (sport design) is not available for purchase. Only pre-primed, paintable version is only version available for purchase.
It was discussed a whlie back and Suncoast and Getporscheparts confirmed.

No one have to buy it but some people (like me) like to add for protection.

Love Augment Wheels' 50th and GT3 wheels. How do they look in person (fit & finish)?

Not when painted. The painted side skirts are a factory option and I had the lip painted, like many here.

Best price with shipping was from Gaudin https://www.gaudinporscheparts.com/o...et-97062825100
@BB 964 One last question on these... Some sites list this part number as "left". Is it the same part number for both left and right? Thanks!!!

If you are installing into a 991.1 you are going to need Paul Li’s adapter.
