- My rear bumper was dinged and has spidercracks running thru it on one corner that can't be fixed apparently.

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.

Just finished putting on the AK1 front bumper and rear spoiler with Sport Design wheels.
Here are some pictars!
I still need 2 have a body shop adjust the hood/bumper fitment and finish bolting it up.
Also put on the 997 turbo brake ducts and they are very big, bigger than the GT3 cup/RS ones i believe. Agency Power headers and EVOMS intake also went on.
things that still need to go on:
- GT3 MK.II front splitter
- side skirts (as soon as i can afford em)
- IPD Intake plenum (2morrow)
- H&R wheel spacers (14mm front 10mm rear)
- supercup towhook
^ you know what's funny marc,
i've gone thru two bodykits now, and both times i neglected to put skirts on ! :hides:
here's a pic of the much larger 997 turbo brake cooling ducts. they were only like 12$ up here in canada where porsche epicly rapes on parts pricing, so in the US i'd imagine they're damn near free.
Omar, it looks fantastic with the aero kit and the sport design wheels. Nice job!
I picked up my sideskirts from DPS for 350 plus 99 for the hardware. I think they actually only charged me about $80 for the hardware. In retrospect, I should have bought the skirts from them and the hardware from Sunset...still, $430 for OEM sideskirts wasn't bad. I just bought the splitter from Sunset for $54.
Your's looks so good, I'm going to visit my paint guy this week, to see about getting mine painted.
Where did you get the brake ducts?
That is funny, I have the opposite going on,my car came with the flared rockers and I really want to do the Aerokit II, I really want GT3 but don't think the bumper will match the Aerokit side skirts
Omar,
Great job. As everyone else has said - side skirts are the next modification. (Althought getting rid of the "Mazda" on the license plate frame might be a priority.
E
omar looks great. Did your front bumper come with center plate removed or did body shop do it? I need one with hole but only see filled centers on ebay.
Mark, did you get skirts from dps recently. At that price I will defintely pick them up.
^ good idea SC! but one that will probably be left for last i'm afraid.
Gurney flap i found used at the salvage yard, i need 2 go get that, along with some other pieces.
Mfletch: brake ducts are supercheap, grab em from your local dealer. 997 Turbo brake ducts (largest ones and also cheapest).
uberskier: mazda plateframe is there 'cause its the family business (one of). plus it makes people (and cops especially) scratch their head with a curious look on their faces
Marc: thanks for the link on the side skirts...350$ for the skirts eh. were they OEM and polyeurethane? Aftermarket skirts tend to never fit right.
A QUESTION TO YOU ALL:
- My rear bumper was dinged and has spidercracks running thru it on one corner that can't be fixed apparently. should i just get a used 99 stock bumper and do the aerokit bumperettes or should i get the GT3 (aerokit 2) rear bumper?
here's how i'd prioritize my $ spend on your car
-Get side skirts and rear side strakes to complete the aerokit along with that lil black plastic thing up front that runs along the bottom of the front bumper
-get litronics because the halogen lights dates your car by a BUNCH - it's the same lighting as on my '99 jeep cherokee for goodness sakes
-then go for the other stuff
i have the black plastic thing (front splitter). i just need 2 install it after having the bumper adjusted some more.
litronics: def not in the budget this year. i need 2 finish my race car and dial it in for the 2009 season
side skirts are key tho...going on a family vacation to the US, so i might have that DPS motorsports company ship em 2 my cousin's place and install em there. then again..it's in maryland, so they could be stolen and the mailman shot before i arrive 2 claim them
oh..forgot to mention..top priority above ALL that..is to figue out why i have an extra seatbelt anchor bolt after re-installing the interior and find a porsche baby seat.....and put a bloody CD player and AMP in....no tunes and no racing make omar something..something..
Very nice, I also did a facelift "sans wing" on mine recently on OEM Sport design wheels too so I do appreciate your new car aerokit, looks great, enjoy!
The car is looking great, Omar! Don't lose any sleep over the Litronics...the neighbors can wait to be impressed by your fancy-pants headlights until the REAL stuff is done...
congrats. Its coming along nicely. I am running 285s in the rear and it fills the back out without spacers FYI. Take a look at my recent post on non stock suspension measurement thread for pics.
^ chao, i have 285's as well.
compared to my previous rims, it's not enough fill. i'm going to spacer them so i hit the 36 offset on the front and 55 offset on the rear that was oh so perfect.
ur car is gorgeous btw. everytime you posted i kept pausing 2 check out your avatar waiting for my parts to arrive
The sideskirts that I got from DPS were at a discount because they were listed on ebay as not having the hardware and they had been sitting around the shop for a while (open box?). They are OEM and had never been installed. I would recommend calling and asking if they had any more "open box" specials.
Thank you Omar. Your car has the sport seats also with black interior? Very cool! Its like having a twin... We want many pics when its all done. Well, we want pics every time a mod gets added.
Omar,
Car is looking good. Of course I agree with everyone on the side skirts.
Those offsets are going to look perfect ! Don't forget to reach out when u come down to Maryland, I am right next door in VA. Sounds like a perfect opp for a meet up.
-Paul
Looks like your coming along nicely, reminds me of the ol'skool days when I had the sport designs.
Go with 15mm all the way with the sport designs and don't listen to any else...
Redridge,
I am setting my ride height using your pics as reference. I may end up riding a quarter inch higher because of no spacers and clearance issues.
Just thought I footnote you.
We'll see about that.....
Just messin with ya Jimbo!
I'm off to London for a while so I'll catch with you chaps later....Choi try not to give the other Rennsters tooo much of a hard time lol...
have a good trip!
wanna bring me back one of the following:
1) a GT3RS
2) one of those hot desi chicks with money (arab ones have too much money and won't even look twice at me lol )
3) tickets to top gear.
thanks.
Sure mate anything else.......as for the Indian girly's I hear Toronto has a bucket full....
I might be hading up to Sheffield for the Embassy World Snooker championship for a few days, we'll see what happens.
Will have to test drive a few cars which is always dangerous as the last time I did that my M was on the market lol.
C'mon bruv...
10 red ***** - 1 pt for each
yellow - 2pt
green - 3pt
brown - 4 pt
blue - 5pt
pink 6pt
black 7pt
Gotta break off and take a red followed by a color, player with the most points at the end wins
quickest description of snooker I've ever done...
Peace out all!
Mick
Omar,
The car is looking great! I like this version much more than how you had it set up before.
Which shop did you use for the paint and install? I need to have my TT front bumper aligned and painted and not sure where to take it.
Cheers,
Stan
