2009 Carrera S. I do have turbo front and rear bumpers for it but I haven't decided if I'm going to put them on.

The turbo front bumper will fit fine since the C2S and Turbo gave the same front clip dimensionally, but the rear won't. It will look bowed at the back corners since it has to tuck in an inch further in on both sides because of the NB vs WB difference.

Yeah I kind of figured that as well. I got the decklid, front and rear bumper, carbon fiber front lip and side air scoops for $2400 as a package deal. At that price I wasn't too concerned. I may not put the bumpers on at all. I think I prefer the Carrera front bumper and may just get the from lip spoiler and grill covers instead. Can anyone recommend a front lip to go with that bumper?

OEM Sport Designs? Did they come black or were they refinished with paint or powdercoat? Man that car is low with a lot of front rake - do you know what the forward rake angle is (digital level on the door sill) - usually when corner balancing a car on coilovers, we shoot for about 1 degree forward rake but yours looks closer to 3 degrees or more.

I have a set of polished 19" forged Champions for sale if you're looking for something other than black. Look great on GT Silver like your car as that's what mine is too.

Yep, OEM Sport Designs. They were powdercoated gloss black. The car is very low but that picture was taken at a local PCA autox with the left front basically flat thats why it looks so raked. Its the only photo of the car I have on my work PC with those old wheels on it. The car now has Avant Garde wheels on it, and about a 1.5 degree rake.

I recognize that photo from last week - I was actually in St Pete on vacation with our widebody Cayenne Turbo S but not at the C&C.
