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.

Ruf Auto Centre
in Dallas. Make sure you get the matching sideskirts too because the bumper will look really odd without the skirts.
I'm on the same boat. you may wanna check with Gettydesign, they have replica RGT bumper. I remember last time they quote me somewhere like 450 (not painted)... I have no experience with their parts so not sure about the fitment.
but there's little voice in my mind keep telling me "don't be cheap..."
Group buy? maybe?

I have the Aero factory kit on my car now, so I think the side skirts may be okay. The $1,799.00 price is from the RUF Auto Center (hoping to find the same part a little cheaper). I'm going up to Dallas this weekend to check out the bumper.
And before anyone suggests, I do have the clear side markers (old picture)
porsche-t - Where in SA do you live? I was there for 30 years and lived in the Northwest part of town, outside Loop 410 up the IH-10 corridor near Wurzbach & Huebner Road area. We also lived out just north of Leon Springs for a few years.
The aero I sides and RUF front bumper won't flow very well IMO. The RUF front has very straight and direct lines, where as the aero I sides are quite wavy and pop out almost...
You didn't mention you already had the complete MK-I aerokit! I would definitely keep that -- it looks really good.
For anyone thinking about getting the RUF RGT aerokit, go for it! I am very happy with mine. I think it is worth the extra money to get the original RUF part which is made of polyurethane like the OEM bumper. The replicas are made of fiberglass which won't be able to bounce back from a hit as well as polyurethane and may give you fitment problems. In addition, the original RUF bumper comes with custom duct work that better channels air to the brakes -- the aftermarket bumpers do not. Definitely get the matching sideskirts if you get the bumper. PM me if you have any questions.
porsche-t, beautiful mark I kit and color. if I were you I would not bother change the bumper. like programmatore said, RUF parts are much better quality and ducts. I think it worth the money. plus it's Porsche and I want do it right.

Weissach has stopped carrying RUF parts. They still have some parts on clearance sale but they are not going to re-stock anymore.
