Front Splitter/Lip Options

Good morning! The front end of my 2001 Boxster S needs a little love. It was lowered by the previous owner and has some battle scars on the bottom. It also needs work in the middle where a tow hitch dinged it.

So I'm looking at fixing up the bumper and maybe adding a front lip or splitter to add a little extra flare without doing a whole body kit...like the aero II.

I've heard there's a GT3 cup splitter that fits. Would it look weird without side skirts? Does anyone have pictures of a stock bumper with that splitter?

Thanks!

Search for Joe Toth composits. He made some nice body kit parts including a front lip and rear spoiler. He posted here on the forum when developing them ...maybe 5 or 6 years ago.

Thanks, I checked those out, but they are a little too aggressive for me. I sort of like the better bodies “986 spyder boxster kit.” Especially since they are polyurethane. Does anyone have experience with those?

My preference is always to do something OEM, but those kits are $$$
