Default Help me understand my dream setup!

Forgive me for my beginner question, but I need some help on this as I'm quite new. I love 997s and have just recently understood why I like some exteriors more than others. I think it's about what some call "aero kits" - I'm not sure what the correct word is - but the pieces some cars have attached at the bottom of the car's body on the front and sides. I think that's what just makes the car pop a little more. I've highlighted it on the attached image which also shows what my dream 997 would look like.

Now to the question. Compared to "standard" or "base" 4S or GTS (these are my favourites) - have I correctly spotted the needed mods? I also see that the bumper is from the GT3 but I've seen ones without it that look just as good. And the ducktail of course.

Second question - I have seen different variations of these parts, and also in different colours. I probably prefer when they are painted same as the car. Any advice on where I should be looking and how much I can expect to pay?

Thanks!

I don't know 100% but in regard to the front lip, I believe that is from the 997.2 Sport Classic. Others can correct me if i'm wrong, but I don't know if that lip came as a factory option for 997.2 GTS's.

Either the owner of that car added it as an OEM piece, or possibly could be an aftermarket copy

The skirts look like GT2? If so that's a widebody part.

Can the Speedster Skirts be modified to fit a standard 997.1 front bumper?

I think that white GTS may be for sale or one very similar to it.
