Default Front lip options

I am looking to add a front lip to my '01 C2 to get a bit more aero. Is there a direct bolt on? I am ruling out anything $400+ because I would rather replace the entire front cover for $1k than just add a lip.

thanks.

Have a look at BrucePs thread "got my baby back", he just did a Porsche Cup lip spoiler for 100ish dollars

I put the gt3 splitter on for $200. It added a little more, but not much.

I really liked that one, too, redridge. Unfortunately, it was NG for the Mk. 1 car.

SALAYC:

By this you mean that the Lip that looks so good will not fit my 1999 C2 CAB?

What I understand is that the little lip like I have on my car is for the Mk. 1s, and this one, which is more of a splitter, is for the Mk. 2s. I don't know whether it can be made to fit, but according to my homework it's not meant to.

Im thinking it will fit, you may have to drill some holes though. What do you think?


edit: These are Mk2 gt3 cups, so Im thinking the regular gt3s will fit

I ordered this same lip last week, I have the part number in Bruce's post.

PM LVDell , I believe he tried to put this same part on a MkI car, don't know if he succeeded
