That is absolutely stunning! It looks so much better in these photos than on the configurator. Congrats on a beauty. I wish I had the aerokit but it wasn't available back then.

Was at my local dealer on Saturday and spotted this in their lot... agreed it looks better in real life than on the configurator. I had a 991.1 GTS with Aerokit so I was previously a fan of the look too, wing is definitely way more aggressive than the 991.1 version.

Traditionally I'm not a fan of red, but that's a nice looking bit of kit! Appears to be riding slightly high? Non SPASM? Front axle lift?

Sweet! That looks awesome.

My Guards Red 992 with aerokit has been at the dealer since early last week. Just waiting on UPS to find out where my signed paperwork is and then arrange home delivery.

Quick question re: visibility

Is there any issue seeing out the rear window with the aerokit wing since it is more aggressive?

I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures since I also had a guards red 996 w/aerokit (see signature) and my wife would like me to consider it again.

Beautiful cars with that Aerokit. Love the Carmine Red on there. Based on what I've read elsewhere, hope you bought the radiator insurance package...

Gonna see my first Sport Design car up close tomorrow. I'm gonna see for myself just how exposed those lower radiators are without the active cooling flaps. From the photos, looks like you could hit a line drive in there without touching anything but delicate aluminum.

Congratulations. Spectacular car.

My 991.2 has a similar exposure. No problems so far. I haven't heard of anyone else having issues either.

This has been an issue for 991.2 Turbo owners with very similarly exposed radiators. Not that it happens all the time but a handful of rennlisters ended up with holes and even being stranded. After reading this, I got aftermarket screens for mine. GT cars with similar bumpers come with screens from the factory.
