Default Boxster kits or front bumpers?

I have a pretty deep dent in my front bumper so the whole bumper needs to be replaced. I'm looking for something a little more aggresive though. I found this kit that I really like, but I was just wondering if anyone has some other links to different kits or front bumpers that look nice..

I like the LLTek bumper (made by Caractere). I actually considered getting one for my 996 cab. I prefer the bumper with the mesh grills instead of the inserts though -- the aluminum or carbon fiber inserts are too much "bling" IMO.



I ended up getting the RUF RGT front bumper and side skirts for my cab. They make the same kit for the RUF tuned Boxster called RUF R3400. It looks great -- aggressive but not over the top. Here's a picture:

LLTek has prices listed on their website -- around $1,900 for the bumper with mesh grills.

Check with Weissach or Ruf Auto Centre in Dallas for current pricing on the RUF R3400 bumper. I bought mine two years ago. The front bumper was around $1,600 and the side skirts (for the 996) were around $800.
