Techart Lip

I finally installed my Techart front lip after it has been sitting in my garage for 2.5 years while my car was getting a new engine.
Today was my first day out with the car because I didn't want to drive it until it was back in tip-top shape. Years in the Florida sun didn't do it any favors. I had to refurbish the wheels, detail the interior and dye the carpet under the rear window.

Today the detailer came over and used a clay bar on the entire car, buffed the tired paint and waxed it...thanks Aaron!

Looks good. It looks like you trimmed the headlights in black. Did you do something else to them too? Hard to tell on my phone

That looks sharp! Did you have to do any glassing or bodywork or did it just bolt right on?

It screwed right onto the factory bumper, a perfect fit. It's urethane and Techart is as close as you can get to factory Porsche parts.

Thanks for the compliment. That means a lot, especially on this forum. It has taken years to get it to this point.

Spoiler lip looks great (balancing the sideskirts)
