Porsche Bodykit? Just sending out a feeler thread to see if anyone has any suggestions or ideas for a 996 full bodykit. I haven't looked up anything but what do you guys think? Any particular brand or model that stands out to you guys? Also what shop locally can supply them and/or which is the best place to get it in terms of quality/service/value? If pics can be provided that would be even better :D |
SR auto group http://www.srautogroup.com/contact.htm . talk to either cyrus at the richmond site or raymond at the vancouver location... ray for awhile had owned one porsche too many (heh) so he might have some ideas for you ;) |
we need TAMPON boy to the rescue plz |
HYDE! |
Gemballa / Techart / Ruf are the major players with the best quality, but also some of the most expensive. I would seriously considering upgrading to a 997 before spending $5-$10k on a bodykit on a 996 that's worth maybe $30k. If you really want a body kit, I would consider the factory porsche aerokit gt3 bumpers and rockers.. |
wtf are those? just stick with factory gt3, gt2 or turbo stuff. |
im running the GT3 factory aerokit, with GT3RS wing only kit i would go for is prob the factory GT2 front bumper (which im doing later this year ;)) or techart gt2 bumper if i remember correctly, yours is a C2 too right? unless you buy a narrow-body turbo/gt2 rear bumper, theres not much option im not too fond of the 996 -> 997 conversion, and i love the look of the 996 personally, i have a set of replica gt2 sideskirt and rear bumper if ur interested ;) heres some links: http://www.betterbodiesmotorsport.com/index.htm , http://www.jacquemond.com/indexuk2.htm |

^ if im not wrong, that would just be a deformed(narrowed) aftermarket fiberglass replica bumper because GT2 has wide front/rear fender and it won't be a bolt on thing for C2. |

964 and 993 had wide front fender for turbo models so i kinda assume the same for 996 |
sell it and buy a 2003-04 GT3. 2000 is a bit old for dropping too much money into. IMO you'll love the GT3. |
OP's 996 is a 2000 so pre facelift? with diff headlights? are you looking to replace them as well? I have seen the GT2 front bumper for a pre facelift one though in hk but yeah your options might be more limited because of the fact that your car is a 2000 model, you'll be looking at big bucks putting in so many pieces and getting them painted and installed right. http://www.newwayhk.com/porsche/ph028.jpg |
