I like the rear wing treatment... Not sure about the front bumper. But IMHO still much better than their version for the 996.

Looks like all bling with no function...
Why not go for the real deal?
Carrera S Aerokit Cup
Costs a bit more but IS functional
"For reduced turbulence at high speed
Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, now offers a new customisation package for the Coupé versions of the 911 Carrera and the 911 Carrera S. The “Aerokit Cup“ consists of a front bumper with an integrated spoiler and a rear lid featuring a spoiler and a rigidly mounted biplane rear wing.
Besides its distinctive presence on the road, the new Aerokit Cup provides a further improved driving stability at high speed for an even more balanced and exhilarating drive. This is possible thanks to the reduction of uplift at the front axle and the generation of downforce on the rear axle. The Aerokit Cup was designed in close cooperation with the Porsche motorsport department and closely resembles the shape of the new racing sportscar dubbed 911 GT3 Cup.
Designing the Aerokit Cup, Porsche succeeded in a task which is considered almost impossible in motorsport: the excellent drag coefficient of the 911 Carrera Coupé and the 911 Carrera S Coupé remains unchanged even with the enlarged front spoiler and rear wing.
Porsche offers the Aerokit Cup worldwide. In the USA it can be ordered at Porsche Exclusive with the new car or at Porsche Tequipment as an aftermarket accessory at a recommended price (MSRP) of $US6,990."

Sure it's expensive but it is engineered and it works... The majority of aftermarket look funkey, have NO windtunnel time in their design, and may well do more to upset the car at speed....
Form follows Function
