/record scratch. You're putting a .1 front bumper on a .2 car? Sorry bro, that's a terrible idea.

it’s a factory aero kit gt3 bumper, only difference is the turn signal lights. The turn signals aren’t very different and not that big of a deal to me. It’s not a concourse car

Had color change done on a 911 18 yrs ago.
Done at top end shop - Cost was $9000.
I assumed these days is would have been double.

I love everything but the fact you're reverting to the 997.1 gen bumper.

Don't take me wrong, it's a great look - but every time I see with a 997.2 / 997.1 front / rear mismatch, my first thought goes to "this car was in an accident and someone couldn't bother to find/spend $ on the right parts".

You can’t buy a .2 aero bumper
plus I have a .1 aero gt3 rear wing, so they absolutely go together

Thank you.
Think I should do my wheels in black? Blue with black always looks good I think. I’ve been running black wheels on my cars since like 98, the Brixtons are the first silver ones I’ve bought in forever. So maybe I should just run silver for a while 🤷🏻‍♂️

You need to show this off at the Cars and Coffee in San Clemente when it’s done!
