Damn, I thought the 2003+ front bumper didn't bolt onto the 97-02 frame?

Also, when the body shop asked Porsche about the S bumper, Porsche told them the bumper wasn't much more "but it's alot of work to make it fit and requires numerous brackets and new attachment points."

I didn't want to tell the body shop that Porsche was wrong, but my understanding was that it was a straight bolt-up.
