Default Front bumper comparison

Hi, It seems that many of you have upgraded your narrow body 993 to the euro turbo bumper. I will do the same but would love to see some before and after pictures of your cars. If you could put them on your post side by side or over/under that would be very appreciated. My car is black but I would love to see other colors as well. I have looked at Robin's evo page but need to see a closer comparison.

THANKS!!!!

One advantage that I've noticed about my standard NB front bumper is that since it curves under and toward the rear of the car, it offers more clearance for lowered cars (mine's at RS height) than with other bumpers or chin spoilers like the RS splitters. I owned Gert's FPB for exactly one full-day's drive and took it off as soon as I got home. I was scraping WITH the bar, but NOT without it! Now if you prefer the look of the turbo bumper, ignore my observatins here. I just thought I'd give you one other perspective.

Sidenote: I do love the look of those RS Splitters, though!!! Compromises, compromises...
