The top one has a cover in the front bumper in the center position that I have circled (begging your permission, Dell, I used your photo since I don't have one of mine from that angle...but let me know if you're bothered and I'll pull it).

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have the Aero Kit I (GT3 MKI) front bumper and side skirts. I read a post whereby Dell had installed a lower lip and really like the look. So, as I'm reading his thread about this install, I noticed something that made me curious. Check out the two photos below. The top one has a cover in the front bumper in the center position that I have circled (begging your permission, Dell, I used your photo since I don't have one of mine from that angle...but let me know if you're bothered and I'll pull it). Dell's actually looks nicer than mine since it's painted the color of the car while mine is black plastic. Now, check out the bottom picture (borrowed from a post on Renntech). It is missing the center cover...or is it supposed to be? Frankly, it looks pretty nice, but is there a reason it was removed, or never came that way in the first place? What are the pros and cons of having this cover in the center of the aero kit I bumper? Thanks.

POST 2Original post

Is it really missing the center "cover" or is the "grille" simply covering it? In any case my factory GT3 aerokit's center opening is covered. Maybe a center radiator, useless for most, has been added?

POST 3Original post

That middle section is for the 3rd radiator opening. I ordered mine closed (but can easily remove it) since I do NOT have the 3rd radiator. Had I installed (or if I do) the 3rd radiator I would definitely remove the center piece. Oh, yes, you have my permission to post that pic. By the way, the other car is Loren's car (owner of Renntech.org)

POST 5Original post

edward, i had the same dilemma. had the bodyshop cut it out and it looks fine. see attached.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Jammy, your car looks great. Love the wheels.

POST 7Original post

Edward - Man, don't start that topic again! Remember the rear wheel "offset" issue? Seriously, I agree with you! His car does look good and I like the wheels, too!

POST 8Original post

Ed, our cars are almost identical! Good luck with the mod!
