Standard non-sport spoiler lip will fit a standard Carrera T front bumper right?
This one: https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/sku992stksl.html
Even with FAL engaged I’m BADLY scraping at the bottom on the steep slope entering my building’s parking garage. It doesn’t seem to show any actual visible damage but I am concerned it might actually get ripped clean off one day if it catches the floor drain grille near the base of the ramp just right. To afford a bit more clearance, I’m thinking of swapping-out the sport spoiler lip that came stock with my T for the non-sport one shown on the link above.
It looks like it should be a direct swap considering some here have already gone the other way (swap non-sport for sport). But on the product description on Suncoast’s site it does say: “Standard on cars with stock suspension. Not compatible with cars with Sport PASM suspension”. And the T has Sport PASM as standard, so….?
Does it just say this because despite fitting right in, it’s technically “not compatible” aerodynamically per Porsche wind tunnel tests at the lowered Sport PASM that the T has or something like that?
I should be good right?

It will, but the aero will be affected. Probably won’t matter in ‘normal’ conditions.

That’s what I figured. Perhaps at speed, there will be less front downforce and may make the nose feel lighter, though barely perceptible, at least for most of us. Not enough to make it dangerous or have any noticeable change to the car’s handling behavior when driven on public roads you think?
