    Whoa , I like how they kept the LED indicators. Not bad, but I like it the way it is. Thanks for sharing.

    Re: 997TT with GT3 bumper

    nice.. for me the stock one, for the turbo is the best. this one is for gt3, looks nice with the GT3, but not with the turbo.

    I don't like it. Doesn't flow with the rest of the car.

    I think it looks sodding marvellous.

    Although maybe nicer if the lip and sills were black and it was a brighter yellow.

    Nose looks better.
    Wheels next. Then take away the cheap side vents.

    I wouldn't have said it better. And as we're at it, replace the alloys with the GT3 ones.

    If I had to venture a guess, I'd say that the rear end looks like all the other Turbos.

    Re: 997TT with GT3 bumper

    Sorry guys, but I think it looks nasty...
    GT3 bumper looks good but goes best with GT3 body and the other way around concerning Turbo aswell.

    Just my opinion...

    O.K. now I understand why the car has a fantasy numberplate with the German word "einbilden". Although the translation (imagine=einbilden) is not completely wrong, I never would suggest to use it for marketing purposes, especially for a Porsche dealer Why ? Because in Germany the word has a very negative connotation, as it is mostly used either to describe a person who thinks a great deal of himself (arrogant, nose up guy) or it's used as a synonym for "fantasizing" (imagination without a real background).
    Reminds me of all the German businesses thinking it's cool to use some English words in their advertisement slogans - ending up with completely pathetic language in most cases

    Re: 997TT with GT3 bumper

    I think the turbo front end would be cleaner with blacked out LED signals and the fogs. If there is a way to do it legally that will be one of my first attempts to clean up the busy front end

    I prefer the GT2 front bumper - at least from what I have seen of it so far...
