Thanks for your helpful posts. The SportDesign Package was a must-have for me and I skipped front axle lift. But for anyone considering the Aerokit, I'd think FAL would have to get some consideration.
Have been living with sport design for a year now and it rarely scrapes unless the driveway is super tall. Also went with wrapping the lip to break up the massive "shelf" like lip.
My 992 S just arrived at the dealer, and I'm making an appointment for PPF and Ceramic coat. The shop also offers Sliplo installation, so I asked them to add that on to the service. But they said the 992 S front bumper usually has a plastic lip and they can't install Sliplo on plastic. Is this correct? How is everyone adding Sliplo in that case?

What? LOL. They can't put it on plastic? Or do they mean that lip? Don't put it on the black plastic but instead on the painted bumper on the left and right side. I actually was able to cut one in half and use each half on either side. I didn't care about scraping the black plastic lip.
On my previous 911, I scraped one of the sides of the bumper, which is painted (where the black lip ends).

Yes, they'll do the sides (where the lip doesn't extend). But I'm going to go over it in person with them and see why we can't do the entire lip as well.

Its not that they can't attach sliplo on plastic but the lowest part on the car is your small plastic frontlip that has no flat surface that sliplo can attach...the lip is literally just a lip sticking out. Attaching sliplo anywhere else want you do any good as that's the lowest part then.

Ok. I think I get it. The lip isn't flat at the bottom, so there is no way to stick it on. Feel it yourself and you'll see. I wouldn't worry about that part though. It's a two part lip and one part that scrapes is easily replaced.
I have one of the versions of the sports design bumper and I used the following for some additional protection. I applied this after lowering my car with Bilstein Coilovers. The thickness is literally the same thickness as the protruding lower lip. As I haven’t scraped yet, I don’t have any feedback on the efficacy in regards to protecting the underside of the lip. The scrapes you see are prior to lowering and were from the first owner of the car
