Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

30 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Outcome without a verified action link

Thats about £2300 then , still not bad I think

POST 1Original post

Does anyone know if its possible to buy this bumper Ive searched and can't find it anywhere .

POST 2Original post

hey Chris....Try Design911 in Hauinet,Essex.....They do custom bodyworks.....Give them the template and they might make one for you...Bet it would be cheaper than Ruf....Get urs done, and I shall hop in second.... Google their website- well laid out when I last checked... ps: any news on Capristo? (oops was tht meant to be a secret?)

POST 3Original post

Also, am not so sure about tht GT3 bumper look (the black, plastic, smiley slots on the top)......Its probably there on the GT3 and RUF for the 3rd radiator cooling.... My worry is that on the CS, it could disturb the aerodynamics; as at speed the air would be going thro the slots into the inside of the bumper creating drag-stoppage, rather than flowing smoothly over the front and across the roof....

POST 4Original post

There is a RUF pricelist in the FILES section here, is that bumper on the list?

POST 5Original post

Checked the Files section...It only has complete car prices, not individual body parts...Though I think the Ruf website markets them seperately.

POST 6Original post

Apparently its available from September , will phone RUF this week to try and find out more , I bet its expensive

POST 8Original post

Read post #12 of... "Cayman S or RUF 3400 K ??" http://www.planet-9.com/cayman-uk/14475-cayman-s-ruf-3400-k.html I believe it is the same car.. if you PM kareldeeley, you can have an itemized price sheet email to you. i believe when i read it the price of the 3400K front bumper was somewhere around $4000 USD...

POST 9Original post

About £2000 plus fitting and painting then , looks loads better than the Porsche Aero kit though , I think its the best front iv'e seen on a Cayman

POST 11Original post

£2000...?...Am definitely getting one then....The Strosek side skirts would look great with it. Its been almost a year since I got the CS...Time for a facelift, me thinks....in addition to K&N filter (being done tomorrow) + ? Borla/AWE catback in the near future.

POST 12Original post

Is that 2000 with all the lights and fittings? Any chance for a group buy?

POST 13Original post

Prices i must have been thinking of something else.... here is the price that was e-mail to me... "RUF front bumper 3400 K incl. additional front lamps € 3,395" i got that from kareldeeley... is it ok if i post the rest of the PDF or is that against one of the rules?

POST 14Original post

Thats about £2300 then , still not bad I think if its against the rules to post the pdf can you pm me it please ? thanks

POST 15Original post

file uploaded... maybe? installer, its in the mail... the PDF was also uploaded, although im not sure if i put it in "my files" or in the main "files" section?

POST 16Original post

It is fine to upload to the files section and I have approved the upload it is now publicly available to everyone via the files section.

POST 17Original post

Thanks for the files Chare have noticed the prices do not include vat but do include assembly and painting . Not sure how that would work on buying a single item so will phone them later today to clarify .

POST 18Original post

POST 20Original post

Dreams shattered.....sigh.....sigh again..... Not to worry - Maybe Tess Tickle could rise up to the occasion...

POST 21Original post

If you REALLY want it.. I can buy it from Germany (located in Belgium) and send it to you. Bear in mind that shipping will be very expensive.

POST 22Original post

You can see the cayman with M's bumper from Japan as follow; Don't you find it good looking!!??

POST 23Original post

Yep...similar looking....but Ruf's front intakes are bigger and more aggressive looking; and moreover the front skirts are body-painted.... Thanx Daggie for ur kind offer...lets see what the future holds...

POST 24Original post

Thank you for your kind offer but what I took from RUF's email was that they won't even sell you a bumper, but they will supply and fit one if you take the car to them . I would love to see what the bumper would look like on a black Cayman . Mines Basalt black and im wondering if it would look as good as the blue car in the pic .The grills and vent near the bumper would not stand out the same , is anyone a real wizz with photoshop that could change the colour please ?

POST 25Original post

kareldeeley, looks like you did it right to me...

POST 26Original post

I thought their main facility was now in the middle east?

POST 27Original post

I talked to RUF today and there are no bumpers anywhere in the world, the last production of them had faults so RUF is switching suppliers and the next batch hasn't been made yet. They will announce when new ones are ready and they are just as frustrated as the buyers.

POST 28Original post

That's a nice one, is there a bigger picture? What's the website of M's bumper?

POST 29Original post

What about the Rinspeed front bumper? It looks simpler but still agressive. I know there are few places that sell them, expensive but probably still cheaper than Ruf

POST 30Original post

The facilty in the middle east is a 2nd facilty to germany. He opened this as part of his relationship to the family that pretty much has funded a good portion of his business by their countless purchases.
