And most importantly, they look cool.
There you go!

I thought it might actually help my Pagid brake problem, but I think I don't need them for PFC brakes, but for brake cooling you could also add smallish 2" ducts through the front (See pics) and through the bottom (Roger tells me I have them and thinks they might actually work) but I have never seen them, perhaps I will ask him to put the car on the lift so I can take a picture..
Also added slightly better TTS front scoops.

I can handle the pontificating. It's that stupid bird that drives me nuts...

WC cup lip

Tested and proven in World Challenge Speed GT competition on our WC-997GT3 Cup cars our WC front splitter is a true flat panel under tray that goes all the way back to the center line of the front axle. Made of ultrahigh strength carbon fiber and honey comb for lightweight and superior strength. Designed to work with a factory 997GT3 Cup front bumper of regular GT3 front bumper. The front under tray also features brake duct channels which increase the down force while speeding up air to the brakes. Wind tunnel tested and proven over years of Pro Racing competition. Splitter section extends out 2" per SCCA Pro Racing rules. Can be used with stock 997 GT3 fender or our World Challenge wide fenders to accommodate a 265 ratio front tire.



Splitter is available with our without the front bumper.

If you are racing your 997GT3 or have a dedicated track car this is the only splitter/under on the market that works!!

GMG no longer sells the rear wing gurney. When I inquired about it, the person at GMG asked me to email them the pic I was looking at on their website. I replied that the image I was referring to was on the actual GMG website, but the person wanted the pic anyway... I played along, sent the pic, and got a reply that they don't sell the part. I responded by asking if they would be carrying it again or could make it out of another material and I got no response....

That GMG splitter is nice, but I would crack it in daily driving or jumping cubs in no time!
FYI, my Gurney flap is 10mm.
