2007 GT3 took a hit in the front and ruined the radiators and bumper cover.

Knowing how expensive the factory unit is, does anyone have experience with anything aftermarket? A decent used one is $3,500.

Looking for a possible solution that may look better but still fit the need. I also don't want to deal with fiberglass so something flexible is priority.

Lastly, how much different is turbo bumper than GT3 bumper...?

Thanks for any help!

Turbo is very different. Bumper not fixable?

Insurance should have to take care of it no matter how expensive. CUP bumper 997.505.981.90? Do not go aftermarket.

Thanks for the info. I purchased this car from the owner who had the accident. I can't believe they totaled the car but it has been easy to fix. That is the reason I was asking about alternative options.

I'll have a look at the CUP bumper. Unsure what the differences are there.

Spyerx, doesn't appear to be. Pretty mangled. I will have another look to see but I'm pretty sure I will need to get a new one.

Check out Tye's build thread. A LOT more goes into front clip conversion to Cup than you think.

Any info on Wicked products...?

Absolutely do not use wicked. If OEM is not an option (I strongly suggest U be patient and find oem that fits your budget) the only I would recommend is Precision Porsche.

Give Tony a call there.

Thanks guys, ended up buying used factory bumper cover. All good. I paid the price but will be much easier to install. Is all I need to do is paint.
