Pics are always welcome.

I liked the idea of doing this service on my 997.2. Would you have the part list you used?

Mine Zunsports were the same -- no drilling. That said, I did not install the center screen as I do not have a center radiator.

new rear bumper and exhaust tip

Last year i was swapping out my exhaust getting ready for an hpde day and forgot to put the tips back on before taking a ride to the home depot and managed to melt part of the bumper cover. I managed to find a used replacement and had it repainted.

damaged bumper

newly painted, center cutout for trailer hitch.

I, too, have no center muffler. But, the black plastic blocking plate is not eye candy.
It looks better with the screen.

Baller color choice! Am I safe to assume "roof replacement" means you're upgrading to a non-sunroof version? Alu or CF? Would love to hear more & follow this project if you don't mind doing a thread on it.

Good luck to you. I will be enviously watching.
