New owner, sad looking front spoiler
Hi there folks just joined from sunny Portland Or, sunny for now at any rate.
Just got my 02 Speed Yellow Turbo about 3 weeks ago, and its in overall great shape aside from the jacked up front lip. Its probably the first thing I'd want to attend to, and I'd like to get some advice on replacements. I see knock offs, OEM and performance parts. The intention was to keep it as stock as possible but was quoted over $500 from both the dealership and the independent Porsche specialist down the street. Any advice? I am presuming I can easily install this myself.
Cheers

Welcome!
Welcome to the 996 family. Post some pictures, especially the busted front spoiler. Is this your first Porsche? If so, the first thing you need to check is the blinker fluid level. If it gets too low, it could blow your bulbs and possibly cause electrical issues.
Cheers!
