Default Will a gt3tek front spoiler fit inside the car?

So I purchased a gt3tek front spoiler lip (now sold under name Better Bodies Motorsport it seems). I had it shipped just across the border to make things cheaper, which means I need to drive a bit to pick it up.

And of course I'd rather drive the 911 than my Subaru over there.. so does anyone know if this lip will fit inside a coupe? I roughly measured how big I think it would be and it seems like it probably would fit (if taken out of box), but wondering if anyone has tried?

When I bought one back in 2019 it was delivered to me in a small box all twirled up.
Had to let it settle and return back to its original form before installing.
Heat gun works or leave it in the sun for a bit....

This is the way it looked on my car before I got the GT3 bumper. Very nice well fitting piece.

That looks great. Was there drilling of the stock bumper required?

likely so
aim the pointy ends towards the front of the cabin and the splitters apex towards the rear window
just feed it in from one side to the other.


I've carried mine this way.

Thanks all, it ended up fitting fine on top of the folded down back seats -- arrived slightly curled up which helps. It does looks like it's going to require some screws to affix to the front bumper unfortunately.
