That's a GT3 model of the 997. The front bumper is the stock bumper with air outet in the top for the center radiator. The turn signals have been changed to LED versions. I don't know who makes that front lip. It has carbon fiber dive planes or cannards added to the sides of the front bumper. At the rear, the normal Aero Kit rear wing has been replaced by a duck tail. Wheels look like OZ Ultraleggeras and are either custom sized with offsets or running spacers. Car also has Carbon bucket seats in it.

I have that lip. I was told it was the Cup lip. Mine is OEM. It came in a Porsche box when I got the car. It is hard not to scrape that lip but is very easy to R&R. About 90 seconds.

Thank you. The air outlet for the center radiator is a nice touch to the gt3 bumper.

It's actually stock on the GT3 aero kit as the deflector behind the radiator has the air exit up and out. On the Carrera models, with the aero kit, since they don't have the 3rd radiator as stock, they also don't have what's referred to as the "smile" vent air outlet. When you add the 3rd radiator to a Carrera the air exit is actually out the bottom because of the deflector design behind the rear bumper. Many people add the smile vent to complete the look, but that's why you only see it stock on a GT3 and not a Carrera with factory aero kit.

correct. OEM. It's a little harder to see on a darker color, but you can see the front air exit on my Aqua Blue picture a few posts up (post # 4678). They also have air exit on the engine lid in the rear too...

This was when I was installing a Sharkwerks center bypass pipe. These cars come with 3 mufflers, and many of us remove the center & retain both side muflers. The sound is incredible.

Sorry.. I meant , how low is it. Assuming coil overs, how much inches or mm low are you.
