Default New Splitters/Turbo S Ducts

Replaced my old splitters that were kind of banged up and replaced my yellowed running lights/fog lights with the Turbo S ducts. Sure glad to have my car back.

Which brand splitters did you get? How hard were they to install?

Bob,

I bought the factory spliiters from Carnewal. The factory items are made of a plastic that is somewhat pliable which comes in handy if you smack them on a driveway or while parking. They were not cheap-especially with the exchange rate.

MASHAW has them in fiberglass. I believe they are cheaper. My turbo s ducts were purchased from MASHAW and they are very nicely finished and the fit is very good.

The install is not difficult as far as I can tell. Might have to drill a few holes. I did not do the work-my body shop removed my old splitters and installed the new ones for me.

Thanks for the information Chuck. I have been contemplating the RS splitters and debating the options.

The car looks great by the way.

The quandry is to go with the classic 911 look - just leave it... or
Go with the RS look - Splitters, wing, and side skirts
Then there is the TechArt look
Then there is the (fill in the blank) look
Do I want a spoiler to hide an eventual forced induction upgrade?

etc.
