Can A GT-3 Front Bumper Skin fit on my 2007 997??
I have a chance to pick up a near new front bumper skin from a 2007 GT-3. Will it fit on my 2007 997 Targa 4?? I have not been able to get my car over to see if it will fit..
Thanks in advance

Thanks for all the input. I had to remove my front bumper skin to replace a bad horn. I got a look at the air intake scoops. I was amazed how big they were. I can only imagine how big the GT-3 intakes are. I'm going to purchase the GT-3 bumper skin and have it painted so I can be ready for a swap. I will check the air intake scoops for the GT-3 to see how fifferent they are.
Thanks again

Steve,
There are no ductwork issues/modifications required when swapping out your original bumper with a GT3 or Aerokit nose. It's a relatively straightfoward project. The GT3 nose has vented slots atop the bumper for ventilating its' 3rd radiator and will only serve for aesthetics on your car.
The lower side vents, which come with the bumper, are removable plastic pieces you can elect to cover with mesh to protect the side radiators.
Here is Mike's excellent pictorial write up on the R&R.
