Is it possible to fit one of these to a standard 997 (C2) bumper...? Edit: Gen 1

It doesn't seem obvious to me how to go about it...

Do I have to hack into my bumper...?

Any tips gratefully received. :idea:

would the aero bumper lip not be an easier option than a misfit of the Turbo lip?

Nothing that'll fit to the standard (Gen 1) bumper, then...?

I don't know the answer myself, but the best place to look would be on the american porsche forums like rennlist or something like that, as americans are big on customising their cars. I know the porscheshop.co.uk do body kit conversions they might be able to help you out too.
