Sunset Porsche - 30 days from Germany. If you order one, let me know. We can probably save on shipping if they are bundled together.

I bought one in May from Gert at carnewal.com and had it shipped directly to where my "new" 993 C4S was, in CA. Online price is about $1000, and quick shipping to LA was 78 Euros. (PM me, or mail Gert for pricing.) The part arrived in just under a week after order. I was pleased.

It's worth a discussion about how best to install it.

The lip comes with double-sided tape. It apparently also bolts through the left and right side of the stock lower covers. I assume that two holes must be drilled, although I haven't seen them; just felt the stud position. Nevertheless, my lip does not fit seamlessly nor tightly. The Factory installation that I've seen on a C2S with Aerokit, on the other hand, is seamless and tight, unlike mine :-(

I asked Gert about this and he wrote that preferred method was securing the chin using TEC7, an automotive glue used in Europe. I'm not sure what an equivalent would be here in the USA.

I'd hate to make holes in the wrong place. Anyone else have experience with the best way to align and mount these chins?

Mine is already ordered. They have to ship it down here from Portland when they get it. Probably can ship 2 for 1 since its oversized already.

FYI some time back a Rennlister w/a TT had the S-spoiler attached and had the grooves and seems filled in...it looked very clean.

Trinitony - Thanks for the link to prior thread, and the links in there to methods of attachment. Apologies to all for asking a question already answered - next time will do better "search".
