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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Will the front bumper cap from the C4S or TT fit a 99 C2? I just want a different front-end. I'm hoping the front fenders are the same and only the rear fenders are different between the 2 models.

POST 2Original post

When you say Cap are you referring to the whole Front Spoiler I asssume? If so a factory OEM TT or C4S spoiler will not fit a 99-01.. The headlights are different.. you have to go with a MASHAW or other aftermarket spoiler like this....

POST 3Original post

If you did want to go with an OEM front bumper cap, you would need to do the following (at minimum): 1- replace front fenders (with 2002 and up) 2- replace front headlights (with 2002 and up) 3- replace front re-bar behind the bumper 4- modify your radiator intake ducts 5- modify your front inner fender liners to match the profile of the turbo bumper 6- mess around with some of the mounting points for the bumper underneat the car 7- replace the underhood plastic mounting bar for the front bumper (from a 2002 and up) Why not just get a 1999 through 2001 GT3 front bumper. They're beautiful. That or go with the aftermarket one in the above pictures. A lot of work and money

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I thought about that too....just not sure how it would look without the rest of the body ground effects on the sides or rear.

POST 5Original post

I have seen it without the side skirts and it definitely looks better with. I don't know that the Turbo nose would look anymore complete than the GT3 nose. It's really up to you but I would personally avoid the whole pre-2002 look to newer conversion. It makes no sense. Get the proper nose and the side skirts. You'll love it.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well what I really want is a different front end. The factory one is too soft IMO and I want a different look. I am not trying to make it look like another 911 model either, I just want something that appeals to me more. I'll just have to look around and see what's available.

POST 7Original post

IMHO, if you want an agressive look go with the one Kevin has. You probably do it with black or silver grilles (a la 40th anniv. grilles) if you don't care for the mesh, or have the mesh painted a different color. It's aggressive w/o being outlandish, and the fit looks perfect!
