Ok, some time has passed, and while I dislike my front bumper less than I used to, I still would love to upgrade to a GT3 RS front bumper... You know, same as the GT3 but 3 notches on the top just before the trunk lid...

My question is: do you need to buy a bunch of extra hardware (scoops, air passages?) to make the 3 bumper openings functional, or can you just bolt it on and not mind if there is no actual airflow benefits ?

Off to carnewal to see how much they cost, that should calm me down !

Hi deschodt..... I don't know a lot about it, but, I do know the following. The stock GT3 Mk II center radiator exhausts downward under the front bumper cover. The GT3RS center radiator exhausts, as you point out, upward through the three slots in the top of the bumper cover. Consequently, the stock GT3RS center radiator is mounted at a different angle to facilitate the different exhaust direction. I don't have personal experience, but, I believe that you can order the appropriate RS center radiator mounting hardware to re-angle a center radiator.......but, wait....... does your car (you didn't say) even have a center radiator?

No, my car is a stock C2... The reason I asked is I was wondering if it's OK to have those exhasut vents up there without any hardware underneath, or if it's a bad idea for some reason...

The GT3RS bumper is hard to find, and I've been told wit's wide body... doesn't look it, but whatever... The GT# Cup is the one, except I need to fill the slit for the tow hook. And it seems to be available for $1550 out there... I'll see if I find it for less..
