The wing is thicker with more of a curve does anyone know if you would have to replace all 3 items or can I just swap out for the slightly newer bumper cover?
As far as I know, if you just want the 03 rear bumper, it should fit fine just by swaping them out. But the spoiler is completely different. Since its wider than the earlier ones, you will have to switch out the trunk lid too. I don't know if anyone has done this either. If I were you. I would go with the Cayman "style" turbo spoiler that is made for our cars. Its a direct replacement and looks much better than any of the O.E.M. spoilers. Let me know if you want a link to the spoiler web site. Another alternative to the rear bumper is at VIS racing. Check out their body kits.

Or try this web site. This is the best rear end in my opinion.
