Hello all - first post here. just picked up my "new-to-me" GT3 (2004) on Saturday...
Drove from the Chicago area to Muscle Shoals, AL this weekend to pick-up my new car.
Wow is this thing fun!
Towed it home and it's safely in my garage.
Here's how it looked when I arrived:
The front splitter is gone. The guy said he "took it off", my guess is that it was taken off accidently. Any ideas where the best place to buy a replacement would be?
Loaded and taped up:
Home after it's first bath:
It needs a real detail for sure and that should happen soon.
The car had 35,800 miles on it and was a daily driver only. It's in very good condition.
I'm excited to get some seat time in this thing!

Congrats. A lot of people who drive their GT3s on the street take off the front spoiler for extra clearance. I think the GT3 looks way better with it in place, so I choose to scrape it every time I drive the car. I would get the "cup" version - check the Racer's Group, Sunset, Suncoast...
The weather was nice enough that I was able to do some spirited driving in the hills this weekend - can't wait to get some track time myself.

The cup version wraps around the sides of the bumper, whereas the stock splitter tapers in. I believe it sticks further down as well. Part# 996.505.986.91 and it should only set you back about $150.

cup splitter for sure -- it is cheaper
also, consider buying 2 at a time to save on freight -- it usaully ships "oversized" and costs a fair amount... freight for 2 would be the same as freight for 1.
Also consider ordering extra pins for it... you are bound to lose a few... I think they are .75 each and I cannot recall how many the splitter takes.... maybe 15 or so.
What color blue is that? Lapis?
Congratulations!
