I still think the best looking front ends are the TT bumper with the S-lip, and the Ruf bumper that Steve and a few other people have (although I think you'd need the Ruf rear bumper to balance it out). If you are looking for something that looks semi-factory but is a bit more aggressive you can replace some of the grills with stainless steel...I did this on the main lower vent as well as the circular vents on the S-ducts but have not yet decided if I will stay with this look.

IMHO the aesthetic disparity between 993 and 997 generations is far too great
to successfully integrate the two in a way that will not look awkward.

I don't know why somebody would do this, but hey, different strokes!

I recently lost the center piece of my lower front spoiler lip and wanted to convert to the Ruf. When I called they told me it is discontinued. Have a replacement piece on order.

That thing belongs to 996 not 933.
Though I'll wait for the final assembly to see how UGLY or Sally it looks like...

If you like this, you might also like the 997 turbo version...

I'd dig it if they hadn't put the signals in the scoops. It's too "Jetson's" for me.
