ggggggorgeous

i shudder to imagine the cost of the front bumper and side skirts... but that would make my car look wowzah...

is there a rear bumper for the aerokit that swaps to the 986 also?

No there isnt....Thats why I opted for the 2003-2004 bumper with no bumperettes. This really really finishes off the Aero Kit without adding that wing on the rear trunk lid.

The rear treatment of the GT3 aerokit consists of a spoiler on the rear deck lid.

Here's a sideview with the rear spoiler. Keep in mind, part of the reason his car looks so good is because of the Techart wheels too.

It does. He's since fixed it and changed out the rear bumper cover for a '03 + version. Good as new.
