Looks like this one needs a bit more thought.

touché - guess I walked into that one.

My point was just that it's the exhaust design that might potentially require a different rear bumper style, rather than trying to restyle the rear bumper which would lead to a different exhaust design.

With that in mind, what I'd really like is an exact copy of my Boxster bumper, just with the outlets for the exhaust on the sides rather than in the centre. I suspect that's exactly what you get with a 911 Carrera bumper.

Either way, it seems like there's nothing on the market to do this, so perhaps it's a moot point.
