The one from carnewal is the Motorsports lip but that's not what is on that yellow car...it's not cosmetic though...

FYI......In case you want the lip and order the "Motorsports Lip" here are the parts numbers. I will tell you that the Motorsports lip is WAY more expensive than the standard Aero Lip. Anything with part number "91" at the end will set you back as it denotes Motorsports.

The Aero Lip retails for about $200 and can be had for about $150 from several vendors.

Actualy Dell, you got that backwards. The standard lip is way more expensive than the motorsports lip.

Doh! I knew I hadn't had my fill of Java this morning. Thanks for the clarification. I knew the part numbers and just reported cost ***-backwards

Not a good idea to try and recall from memory when the neurons aren't quite firing yet!

Thanks LVDell,

However, I've just found a messed up Manthay carbonlip at my Porsche dealer that is an exact copy of the Motorsport one really cheap, however, is the damage fixable on it, hmmm?

How do I attach a pic?

Not sure what you hope to gain form a "messed up" carbon lip. The point of the lips is to redirect air and flexible plastic does just a good a job a CF. If you scratch the plastic or bend it then it is ok, but do the same to the BLING lip that is CF and you ruin it.

Of course you are 100% right when saying the carbon is pure bling (a little amount of weight is saved though=)!

But I have a killer price on this lip, even cheaper than the stock plastic one! I would like to show you the damage made to it, maybe some carbonexpert will chime in once he sees the pic?

But I don't know how to attach an image

Thanks again for your time!

Dell,

I was looking to replacing my chin on my GT3, which one is the one that sticks out farther than stock on the sides and front? Whom do you recommend to order it from, How is Carnewal as far as ordering parts, and is the GT3 Cup spolier the same as any of the 2 below part#.

I ordered mine from Austin at TRG. He is on the forum quite a bit and is a site sponsor. I paid $149 and the part numer is 99650598691 PMNA Splitter. The number at TRG for Austin is 707-935-3999.

Feel free to hit me up in PM as well if you have any other questions.

Not yet, it has been so frickin cold here lately that I have had ZERO motivation to hang in the garage lately.

Hopefully it warms up next week and I will install it next weekend. Until then it has been just sitting in my workshop.
