I know this is a dumb question, but I'm going to ask it anyways. Am I correct that I have the standard front bumper and not the aero one on my car? Thanks for the help.

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.

That's what I thought...Thanks for the quick response.

Someone help me understand how the bumper above is different from this http://www.dps-motorsports.com/after...aspx?prod=8911 bumper, because to me they don't look that different, but there are the claims of extra downforce with the aerokit bumper. I don't see the dramatic difference here, but maybe I'm missing something, having never seen the aero bumper up close.

Here's a close up of the early 996 Aero front bumper: The lower lip is much more pronounced, creating downforce and keeping the nose planted on the ground.

Ahh, I see. Thanks. I've not been able to see it in other photographs.
