....which makes ordering it (this car was an ordered car) even LESS sense! Thanks for the info.

Welcome to the Targa club! Your mod-list sounds cool, I'd just skip the wing if you're not doing a new front.

Thanks. Committed on the wing as I've already purchased a reclaimed trunk lid and have had the wing for several months. Going to have it fitted (integrated into the lid as opposed to the bolted on look...) painted and then replace and keep the OE lid. At the same time we're going to have the rockers and lower front bumper painted to match.



Don't really care for the Rinspeed bumpers or rockers but may consider a GT3 style front bumper at some point....

How about getting the GT2 side skirts? Very subtle but noticeable mod. For springs try to consider the Eibachs! You might not need a whole front bumper as well, a subtle front spoiler would really compliment the targa well.

Perhaps on the GTS rockers and front lip, first going to paint the lower sills and lower front bumper to see how that changes it. Leaning toward Bilstein coilovers after reading about the PASM failures with springs.
