It'd take some sting out of the overinflated prices of parts for Porsches. Pretty ridiculous... even labor rates for something as routine as suspension swap is like 2-3 times what it's cost me for my previous cars.

if you search around you can find the GT2 bumper for less than $1300.
I agree that's still outrageously over priced for a fiberglass copy most front bumpers for other cars rarely exceed $600.
On my Miata The entire four piece fiberglass body kit didn't cost $1000
and even that was the most expensive one available (click on my HTTP below my signature). But I had it on for almost five years and would bang the lower lip against my steep drive way entrance and it never cracked.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
