I am in the same boat! My RS is a July build as well, but my GT3 is a Jan build.

Welcome.

My dealer is able to order from the Porsche Motor Sport. It is the same ROW stuff. I have looked at other photos on line of other new RS cages all bolt in with good quality. We will have to install attach plates for the cage to transfer force to the body. I think that the full front and rear cage , with R 6 tires will make the car sick stiff.

Welcome, Jim
sounds like a very sinister car you have ordered...can you pm me or post us the name of your dealer contact for the ROW parts....otherwise we are going to collectively have to kick your *ss
