Hey Souk, some of the original bumpers are on their 2nd owners already...

Like my car. As you know, these bumpers were part of the original GB, and were on YermanCars' 911 until I picked them up. Not trying to give you a hard time (oh, sure I am), but just looking for an excuse to post a pic of my car.

If you think you'll need to add a lower lip, I have some McMaster Carr 0.21" belting left from doing mine. I needed it at VIR, but I really don't think the speeds at BHF are high enough to need it. But I'd be happy to hand it over to you this evening or tomorrow evening if you want to try it.

When you get back and start thinking about the front splitter/ canard let me know. I'm thinking about trying to fab a pair of small side canards for VIR in November. Car was fine with just the lower lip on the pit straight (130+) but got a bit light on the long back straight.

Just to give you motivation as you work many hours each night this week. And in case you decide to try to do the lip, that's a 2" reveal on my car.:
