Front pieces are factory parts. I bought mine from a fellow Rennlister.

Indeed...

I can't help myself, I always need to modify things I own, this was something I always thought would look cool/badass, would get rid of the bumperettes and might help with cooling & aero so I went and did it.
I have no doubt it will help with cooling but aero... Probably not so much, at least based on how much more "crap" is collected on the decklid. Don't have any experience yet with the RSCS wing.
I have ideas for front bumper also, those holes will come at some point.

The front is RS CS and is shared with the road version of GT2.
Just like to see that all said correctly--very OFTEN misunderstood
Correct.

Them parts look really great with Guards Red BTW.

Very nice! I personally prefer the RS tail, but your car looks great.

I continue to be impressed with the rear bumper. The near symmetry of the holes and openings looks to be the result of careful measuring and re-measuring. The first cut had to be nerve-wracking.

Thanks Mark. I'm happy how they turned out. I started with photochop and then once I was happy with that (made couple of different versions), did the real thing.

It wasn't as meticulous as one would think. I mean, of course I "measured it twice and then cut one" but since it was a bumper, I thought you can always replace it. When it comes to fender flares and especially cutting rear fenders (fronts are easier since those are just bolt on), I really have to, and am, thinking hard before cutting...

Oh at least 2 hp was gained, no doubt...

I think you are being conservative, that is good for at least 2.5 or even 3 hp

the exact same mods to my NA '95 993 ...nice very nice although I have the

The solid centre lock wheels and the air jack nozzle on the scuttle below the windscreen suggest this is a cup car not a CS. There were more cups than CS made, so you are more likely to find one.
