Can't wait for this weekend's race!

Hi. I think the lip is perfect. I have 997.2 and it's just a little bland around the front. Most are so oversized and obviously aftermarket. Do you know anyone that has fitted one of the 991 lips in the UK?

I think I'll buy it and go to a bodyshop. They'll hopefully make a better job of it than me.

Before i found my 4GTS I had a deal on the table for a 997.2 4S and I saw this mod and purchased the 991 spoiler in advance.... seeing this post reminded me that i have a new one in the box in my garage...

FOR SALE: 991 front lip spoiler $150.00 let me know

There's 10 other reasons you'll crash BEFORE being able to blame your street car's aero deficiencies.

It was pain to add.. Also holed one headlight washer hose..

Looks great! Sorry to hear about the hose. What method did you use to attach the spoiler?
It would be great to see some more pics from different angles. The closeup wide angle shots tends to exaggerate the lip a little.

Basically there is no other method as when you start to adding it you will see only one way to do it right.. I read all forums i found about how to add it.. But anyway inspiration for this mod was your thread.

Also after lip was added i plasti dipped it with 5 black coats.

Here is more pics




Next mods wheels and side mirrors in orange..

Hey folks,
just did the 991 lip mod on my 997.2S and I am super happy about it. It really integrates well and one could argue better than on the 991... Whole installation took about 2h but one could go way faster if you've done it before.

Install notes:
- used 8x 1/2" screws. If you can find a bit shorter it'd be better but those are fine, just watch for the washer fluid hose
- flattened the tabs by using a cutter to remove the *****. Easy enough but watch not to dig into the bottom of tab, and also not to scratch the visible lip
- propped up front of car a bit using 1" pieces of wood. you can def use that extra clearance!
- used a bunch of painter's blue tape to place and temporarily hold the lip by the bumper. That's all you need really
- put in screws into centermost 6 tabs. can't really go wrong there, I dont think you can hit the hose. Just place the lip as forward as possible to look better
- had to skip the next tabs since there is the long flaps in the way. Instead screwed in the outtermost 2 tabs and A. need to get feel for where hose is and B. place it right so that the front looks flush. Quite easy to do by just looking at it.
- added 4 more screws to the back tabs. Just have to bend the flaps a bit but in the ends it's really secure.

In the end the result looks awesome, somehow cars look a lot meaner from front. Few more things:
- some folks say to put a little hose in the back to prevent the lip from bending down. I dont think that's a problem really... If anything it'll bend a bit further and give you more downforce at speed
- the car ends up scraping a lot more with my PASM stock. I scrape gently about 2-3 times a day now... Also it will catch any park space stopper. No biggie but A. it'll be challenging if you lowered the car and B. I would not paint the lip, will get ugly real quick!

Posted this in the FB group but figured some of you would be interested in seeing what the lip looked like on a white/light coloured car.





Overall I am pleased with the result. The lone issue being that my car is lowered and this is going to scrap over literally everything.

being that its urethane, it wont be a real problem! #tempted.

I like the look. I will be doing mine soon. Best looking lip for the 997.2.

Did not go through the whole thread but where is the lip available besides suncoast? And can the lip be rolled for easier shipping?
