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.

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?)
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....

"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...
£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.
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?
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?
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 .
This is there reply
didn't really answer any of my questions !
Dear Mr. Payne,
unfortunately this part has no clearance to be shipped yet, at the moment it can only be mounted here in Pfaffenhausen.
Best regards

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...
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 ?
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.
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
