I am looking for some 2004 gt3 rims and a front lip that will fit my front bumper. Any of you guys have any idea what would look good? Also I am looking for a set of coilovers for the car. I am new to the porsche life. I just came from the mr2 life style.
Do yourself a favor and find a used set of X74 suspension - it will be less expensive and lowers the car to an aggressive but usable level. Bonus: they handle on the track better than most setups I have seen - even at 3X the price. PM me - there is a set about to get listed.
Ill take a me a pic of my front lip as well with the part number.

Mine has a splitter from GT3 Cup car. It’s a Porsche factory part. Does require slight modification cutting the ends flush with the wheel well.
GT3 front splitter is available from Porsche. About $400 new and fits on the narrow body front bumper. P/N 996-505-986-93-01 Hardware is not included other than the double sided tape that comes on it. Porsche used plastic push clips. Many people just use sheet metal screws as you don't have to drill holes that are as big.
There are 3 different factory splitters that fit your car.
This is the Cup Car Splitter, it is flexible, does not take paint well.
DO NOT USE SCREWS!!!!
If you hit something, which is very likely, you will rip the bumper cover right down.
Those plastic tabs are designed to break off(pull off) if you hit something.
A complete set is like $10
Since there are 3 versions of the lip and naming is not always consistent across various websites, can you two confirm the part # of the lip you used? I think it is 996 505 986 9301C?
Completely agree. Have have had mine taken off by bumps in the road. Simply push the plastics rivet screws back in and your good to go.

I purchased the one that is on the car from Gaudin Porsche of Las Vegas.
Part number 996-505-986-93-01C $328 + Shipping
NOTE: This is the one spoiler (splitter) of the three that has RED Adhesive tape pull.
Some where one of the Porsche supply houses produced an image with all three spoilers lined up on the floor, showing the difference. I tried looking for you, but I can't find where I have it stored
The splitter that came with my factory Porsche Aero Bumper kit from ECS Tuning, had a very small splitter made out of fiberglass.
You can see how much smaller it is.
I hit a Ruffed Grouse in the middle of the road just outside Watkins Glen Raceway, it pulled the plastic tabs out, the splitter dragged on the ground for a few hundred feet until I could pull over safely. It looked like it was sanded flat on the bottom by the pavement.

FYI, this user bought a set of X74 shocks from me. I have proof of FedEx delivery but he claims he never received them. He canceled the PayPal transaction through his credit card company and so I’m out the entire amount. It’s a good reminder to very weary when selling to low post count users. But I’ve done over 100 transactions on Rennlist and this is the first time I’ve gotten screwed. So all in all I still think this is an amazing community!
