Can anyone recommend something a little bit more agressive than the 996/Boxster bumper and if I do this will I certainly need skirts and any changes/additions to the rear end to match the flow of the lines of the car?

I think your Insurance would only replace the same style of body to the car.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, had an accident yesterday, front bumper and a headlight with some minor bend to my hood. I was thinking about replacing the bumper with an aftermarket one. Don't really like C4 or Turbo look, or any busy GT derivations, prefer Aero kit style. Can anyone recommend something a little bit more agressive than the 996/Boxster bumper and if I do this will I certainly need skirts and any changes/additions to the rear end to match the flow of the lines of the car? Thanks!

POST 2Original post

I think your Insurance would only replace the same style of body to the car. Unless there is no one involved with the bump only you and you don't tell the insurance about the accident. You would then have to foot the bill yourself. Minor bend to the hood could be a problem to sort out yourself though. If I was you I would let the Insurance sort you out as it's gonna cost you a bomb either way. Anyway good luck with the fix.

They should just give you the money for the same style. Spending the money itself is up to you. Goodluck!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys! Spoke to a shop today who said they think I could swing the aftermarket bumper into the insurance equation so now I am on the hunt for something decent.

This. Just make sure what ever you find fits. They do not owe for extra fitment time.

POST 6Original post

The areo kit / gt3 bumper is the nicest in my opinion.

POST 8Original post

Been toying at the idea of selling my full OEM Aero kit...
