Someone posted in another thread that it's around $250 or so. I haven't heard for certain. I'm pouring more concrete at my driveway to make a very gradual transition from the road. A PITA for sure, but worth it not to scrape every time I take it out.

Any blemishes on the black plastic-ish front splitter can be fixed with plastidip and/or black zip ties, I'm not going to loose any sleep over it

Cup:S and pirelli P zero C, car is still stock factory set in regards of camber etc. Fronts Will take some abuse in that regards. Rear seems fine. Track Life time? How many threes are there in the Wood,S, hard to tell. Its individual how hard One push the cars, hence tire wear Will differ quite some.

One lap at nur car use exakt 8l fuel in My 7.38 lap.



The Porsche app is great, It growns on you, as Its so easy to use and plenty to see and learn.

7.43 lap, I dont use as much fuel, now its 7.5l a lap.






5 sec slower lap, 0,5l less fuel used in the lap:-)

Nice ... Try work out your percentage time at full throttle which will tie in nicely re consumption .... But 1% more time at full throttle will be a lot better laps time I recon.

The car is motorsport-designed and low. The lip will scrape. It's plastic and inexpensive to replace.

This might not help you too much but Suncoast Porsche here in the States usually has very competitive pricing on their Porsche parts.

They have the front splitter (horizontal piece only - the vertical trim is additional $) for $259. That excludes shipping (which would likely not be cheap).

http://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKUGT4LIP.html

Not terrible but disappointingly quite a bit more expensive than the same trim piece on the 991 GT3 ($179 US).

Well to be fair, that's not an incline at all -- it's just a drop, which means that approach angle requirements for clearance will always be maxed out relative to a path that curves downward and then curves to flatten out as most driveways do at least somewhat.

Every where I go it scrape the front lip, it sounds bad but is accually looks fine. This is due to the spoiler lip is clever developed and attached. Hence it can take some beating with out geting destroyed. It touch everywhere, speed bumps, the Ferry, in or out of garage, etc. But as I mentioned before, I dont mind at all. As Well the front brakeducts take some beating. Here in the streets of Gotland Visby inside the city center it sounds very bad when it touch all over.

@ Gotland track, 3.2km long. I drive the short way (tight line) around then its just ap 3km. rather boring compared to nur. Still the track got 30m hight difference wich makes it a challenge still. But its not like you can scare the living Life out of your selfe, like you can on nur. Thats the Biggest issue really, all other tracks is rather boring if used to nur.
