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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All I have a C2Cab due for delivery in December this year, and I'm trying to gather information on what I need to install the Turbo look bumper to this car. Now, I'm looking at the C4S/911-40thSpecial front collection, and the bottom lip under the bumper is not aerodynamic as is the turbo's. This is the C4S version that I think I need: http://www2.uk.porsche.com/english/g.../psm_foto1.jpg This is the Turbo version - note the bottom black lip goes right across the bumper: http://www3.us.porsche.com/english/u...intro_foto.jpg Now, I think I need the following : Front Bumper Lower Lip 3 x Grills for behind the bumper Then just painted and fitted by either an OPC or 3rd Party Has anyone ever done this ? Do I need anything else ? I notice on the C4S diagrams that the lower lip is ducting air to the brakes, so maybe there's something missing ? Do I also have to have the side skirts to match ?? Looking forward to my first 911 !! Many thanks all G.

POST 2Original post

I believe you also need "eyebrows"..the little curved pieces that go between the bottom of the headlight assembly and the topof the bumper. In the assembly process you also will have to replace the stock bumper mount with a turbo bumper mount. The stock bumper mount is too long because of the wide turbo openings. They run about $250 or so. One other way is to have the stock bumper mount cut back on either side to duplicate the shorter turbo bumper mount. I don't believe that side skirts are needed except for cosmetic appearance. I can't comment on track use, however. You also should get the correct "duct work" with your turbo bumper. And lastly you might consider painting the black lip body color strictly for appearance. First 2 pics show diffence in stock and turbo bumper cover, last pic is the turbo nose on my 02 narrowbody Cab showing the body color painted lip.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
