Hi. I'm delighted to have returned to the fold having just acquired a 991.2 GTS in GT silver.
The car is in incredibly tidy condition but a couple of questions I'd welcome any guidance on please. The plastic front spoiler lip has see better days so I'd like to replace this. My local Porsche dealer is closed for the time being. Can you get these official Porsche parts anywhere else.
Finally, does anyone have any experience of PPF'ing the front to preserve the condition of the car? Cost vs benefit and look?

Thanks in advance. KR L

I have also recently bought a GT Silver 991.2 GTS. My front lip has few light marks on the under side but as it has axle lift they are minor so will give a light rub down to clean off any burrs. Mine is black plastic, not body colour.

My car is going for PPF next week to preserve the paintwork. The car has only done 1800 miles so the paint is in great condition so I want to keep it that way. If the paint was chipped up as it might be on a car with more miles I’d probably leave it and paint at a later date.

Thank you for your reply. How much of the car are you intending to PPF? Enjoy your car. Sounds like a new car!!
Kind regards, L

The whole front end plus side panels and lower parts of the rear bumper. Oh, and around the windscreen. It is pretty much as new.

Thanks Jcosh. Do you mind me asking how much you have been quoted for that? I was quoted £2400 for the full front end which I thought was incredibly steep!

A fair bit less than that, you can PM me if you wish.
