Basically, follow the link in the cleaning out the radiators thread and you'll be able to mount it yourself if you have a lift or jackstands. TriGem2K did this and reported no problems AFAIR. I thought it would be very difficult looking at the instructions its not hard at all just takes some time to pry out the fasteners from the wheel wells. I looked at the Porsche Electronic Catalogue print out and there were a few retaining strips (in case of impact) that were unique to the 911 but not a concern unless you plan on playing bumper cars.

I'm not sure how a GT3 front bumper would look like without skirting since its bigger (wider and longer) than the stock Boxster front end.

Thanks, this helps alot. I do trust Dayton at DPS, and would most likely buy my gt3 bumper from him. They have very good pricing. I bought my side skirts from DPS at a fair price. He even sent me the wrong skirts and was happy to exchange them for the right ones at his cost.

Pecivil make sure to post back when you get the bumper.....i'm really excited for you...lol....everytime i look at my car, it seems to be missing something......GT-3 front bumper.....dam! i'm going to have to wait until the summer, unless i win an auction that gets me that bumper for $500....
