Can anyone provide some advice on how to remove the very small lip prior to attaching this one? Doesn’t seem to be any screws to remove the original ?

Omar Del Sogno Blu says:

Hi CF – what do you think about the EMC2 solution? It looks interesting.
I enjoy you channel!

Brian Park says:

Love the mod!

Michael Wong says:

looks a little too heavy for the 997.2 bumper – i had contemplated it myself for my car, i bit the bullet and went werks1 instead. you still did a great job – as always.

Justin Maestri says:

Looks great!! Just a heads-up that EMC2 created a 3D printed installation kit that alleviates the need for drilling, styrofoam, and zip ties found here >> https://rennlist.com/forums/997-forum/1088022-991-sports-lip-spoiler-adapter-for-997-2-done.html

It’s time to talk sponsorship with your local hardware store, re do your epoxy floor, bang up your own DIY vid of the process! Keep up with your great Vblogs!

Alex L says:

Looks like more trouble than it's worth.

Saibu Shayer says:

Love the new look. But I think you switched the last 2 Before & After pictures.

Vincent T. says:

I personally like the original lip better, the 991 doesn't look that bad but the lower ground clearance can make it a nuisance.

sean911sc says:

What’s with 991 parts. Stay true to 997

Mr Inbetween says:

Good video wish you would of explained in more detail how to install and avoid the hose issue

Slim P says:

Now that you are in AZ join PCA and attend some of the Sunday drives. We have fun and need some younger car guys

K1dPhresh1 says:

Before/after pics in the daylight would’ve been nice. Kind of hard to see everything being black and not out in the sun. Could be because I’m watching on my phone too.

No ID says:

Great mod, as usual

Michael Aberin says:

I thought it said front flip I was gonna say “the freak you can front flip a 911

cintra2 says:

very bad modification, it doesn’t look good for this car, we can see that it doesn't fit well for the car. Put back the original lip, I think it’s better.

D Wray's Garage says:

CF – I know you went to quite a bit of trouble with this but I think it looked cleaner before. Just my 2 cents and absolutely a personal preference item.
