Thanks a lot guys, really appreciate all your input and experience. So it's a no go, I will sell it here for a really good deal to whoever wants to get it!

If you like it, put it on and enjoy it. I would. But keep the OEM parts JIC you later want to sell to a purist or trade with a Porsche dealer.

Negative vote here. Too much with the rear lip IMO. OT but re: the lip is that the Vorsteiner one?

The Vorsteiner is a beautiful piece and the fit is excellent. The look is aggressive but this is a sports car.

Plus, a diffuser just looks goofy. Especially goofy when everyone knows it doesn't do a thing for aero. Might as well get one of those fake turbo blowoff valve sound makers.

A real diffuser is part of the underbody aero and the slats stop underneath the bumper. It doesn't look like a row of upside-down shark fins stuck onto the rear bumper.

It's really about what you want. I have only received compliments on the Vorsteiner from the cars and coffee group and fellow Porsche owners.
I'm not trying to shave tenths of a second at this time in my life. I'm keeping this car and just like the aggressive look.
It's really all about what you want, it's your car. I've never been accused of being a Posser after a dozen of these cars.

uve ordered the vorsteiner myself. If done right it sets the rear off.

So it's for sale painted at half the price I paid for.... it primed, painted and clear coated. Never mounted. Whoever wants it let me know... also mods if it's ok to sell here if not I'll post it on the for sale forum.

It's a real nice diffuser from gt3tek but from what I have learned here (which I am really thankful for all of your opinions and sugestions) unless I want the more aggressive look it would be a go, but I rather stay stock.
