Your car looks great. What type of front bumper cover is that? Can you post more pictures?

Thanks for the nod on the looks of my ride. The bumper cover is a factory 911 GT3 (at least that's what they said and it does have the Porsche factory part number on it). I'm waiting for the chin spoiler as I type this. I'm down with the motive bleeder, I'm wondering how people sealed the ends where the caliper joins the brake line, while they removed the entire caliper. I erased a lot of my good pics, I'll be working on improvements on the next pics in sig, I'll make the current one bigger when I get a chance. I'm also changing it a bit this winter in Spring I'll post the results.
