So what is the takeaway here with regard to fitment? Am I correct in that the FVD euro lenses will work just fine with the non-OEM Carnewal turbo-s ducts but not if used with the OEM fog lenses? That leads me to another question: PO of my car put on turbo-s ducts but I have absolutely no idea if these are genuine OEM or aftermarket. Does anyone know if the Carnewal turbo-s ducts are different size than OEM turbo-s ducts? Would be nice to know just in case. Lastly, are OEM euro lenses different size than the FVDs?

I sourced my ducts and lenses from Gert. The fit is perfect.

Well I have only heard and read good things about your guys products. Is there any easy way to tell if I have knock off turbo-s ducts or the real deal? I suspect there must be a Porsche part number somewhere on the real ones.

Update: after more research, I decided to buy my parts from Gert at Carnewal.

I really didn't want any fitment or quality issues, and I figured since the parts he sells are Porsche OEM, it was worth the extra money to buy the best.

I'll post more when the parts arrive.

Thanks Gert!

Just an update on this thread....

My car is back from the body shop with the bumperette delete mod done.

Here's a shot of the outcome; I think it turned out pretty well!

Thanks to everyone who chimed in; I'll be selling my short clear lenses and fog lights next week, if anyone is in need of those parts...

Does anyone have the brake ducts without the fogs?

I like the smooth uncluttered look.

Edit; went ahead and bought them I like the look of these over the fogs

Don't buy amber or silver orinary bulbs! Go for Tore B LEDs for the whole exterior of the car except the headlights where You instead use His HID kit!

Order from Bervill FX and You will never look back!

Tore at Bergvill FX told me he does NOT have the right HID bulbs for the foglamps...

Sorry! That's true! I meant the bulbs for the trafficators and side and rear lights.
Tores leds for 993s is a must!

I went with the cheaper route. The bumper inserts worked out ok, good thing is I can go back to stock easily. Got the air ducts from type911.uk and longer euro clear corner from eBay for around $80.
