Trying to inquire about one of these front splitters from Cargraphic in Landau, Germany but can't seem to get a response from their general email. Haven't tried calling yet (6 hour time difference). Wondering if anyone on the forum has done business with them recently and has a better email address or direct contact? Or knows of another parts dealer stateside that sells something similar (single piece i.e. no gap) that can fit on a non-turbo front bumper. Thanks.

You could try PARR in the UK who are supposedly a Cargraphic re-seller, as another point of contact: https://parr-uk.co.uk/contact/ . The time difference will obviously be similar, though.

Thanks for asking @ch3tman . I was able to contact one of the US-based Cargraphic dealers listed on their website, and a few days later got an email saying they could get me the part for just under $2200(!!!), shipping not included, with an 8 week wait time. Hard pass. Then I finally received an email from Cargraphic offering the part for 1095,00€ (or a little over $1100), freight shipping not included, and a 10-15% discount for group buys. Interestingly I discovered that someone looked into this exact same part 5 years ago on the 911uk forum and was quoted 595,00€ at that time- so we are looking at an almost 100% markup by Cargraphic after just a few years. And apparently a 100% markup by the US dealer on the current price. So I've given up on this for the time being.

No worries, and yes that is quite extortionate pricing for a fibreglass (GRP) splitter .

Did you come across this thread from 2018? https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...-splitter.html
Costs then, for the same item, were €950 including door-to-door freight via FedEx. So there has been a steady increase in their pricing.
Another similar-ish design you may like is below, although it's a little more 'heavy' looking:
@DiegoR had a go at replicating the above design but it was a very involving piece of work! Kudos to him for making it come to life. See below...

We made a mold from the original Turbo S spoiler so I could duplicate it easily. It came out nice (not pictured) and did fit perfect in my 993tt bumper. Once I tried to fit in my Carrera bunper it wouldn't fit AT ALL. It was too wide and shaped totally different. Then the adveture begun cuting it in half, taking off material, reshaping the whole thing, almost 70-80% had to be redone.
It turned out good enough for me, far from perfect but I like it. Also is not that agressive (how much stick out the front curved lip) but the outcome is what I was expecting...
"Mother mold"
Yes! I'm missing the drain plastic things, plastic nuts for the new undertray cover I indtalled between other details so excuse me these details.
