Genuine RUF front bumper. Comes with the oem plastic air vents and shrouds. Everything has a purpose when RUF comes into play.

Viola, I am glad that you are finally getting better after the concussion, thanks for sharing the story.

In regards to the 986.. WOW :-)

That is a beautiful engine, may I suggest something else that may help you enjoy the new power on your car? How about an OS Giken LSD...?

I installed one of these on my 987S and it transformed the car all together, and that was with the 3.4 engine, can only dream how it would be with a properly built 3.8 :-)

Been thinking about LSD. I may have to consider something like that to get the power down to the ground as best as possible.

You will definetly need some help with a 3.8L, I bought a Guard torque bias diff for my 3.6. It makes a big improvement just on public streets & it's maintanence free.

I will see how it handles with sticky 285s first and go from there
