Default Exterior suggestions??

I have a 2002 Targa with the the side aero flares. However I would like a more aggressive look, but subtle.

I'm thinking of this for the front: http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/9...-bumper-2.html

However I don't love how the center portion almost turns down a bit.

I'm looking for suggestions on mile exterior modifications. Thanks.

Stay in the zone and leave it alone. Your car looks great just the way it is.
Just My Opinion.

go with the MK2 GT3 Body Kit, best looking ever... Since you already have a GT3 Sides, all you need is Front Bumper and Rear Wing... You can get OEM from here http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...Code=POTE996EX and http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...Code=POTE996EX or you can get them in Replica's for fraction of the price...

Headlight covers don't make them look like real 911's, just makes it look like a 997
