Do I need the UCW rear wing with the Front Splitter Kit for 991.1?

Yes, if you want the balance Verus designed. Verus Engineering sized the Front Splitter Kit for 991.1 GT3 against its UCW rear wing, so the two together keep the aero balance safe at speed. Verus has published no balance figure for the splitter with the factory wing, so plan the rear first.

Is the 991.1 GT3 splitter practical on the street?

Yes, within reason. Verus Engineering kept the stick-out moderate so the 991.1 GT3 stays usable away from the track, and the carbon thermoplastic blade resists the cracks that carbon fiber and ABS blades develop. Any splitter lowers front clearance, so steep driveways and parking blocks still call for care.

How is the splitter mounted?

An 11-piece sheet metal bracket kit, CNC cut and bent, ties the two blade halves to the car, with a cross brace beam spanning the width. Two splitter ties and four machined clevises keep the blade located under load, and Verus Engineering rates the mounting to carry more than 300 lb.

Will this kit fit a 991.2 GT3 or a GT3 RS?

No. Verus Engineering makes a separate splitter kit for each 991 front end. The 991.2 GT3, the 991.1 GT3 RS and the 991.2 GT3 RS each have their own kit, and the GT3 RS versions add carbon splitter diffusers, grind strakes and support rods. Choose the kit that names your exact car.

Why carbon thermoplastic instead of carbon fiber or aluminum?

Carbon thermoplastic is stiff and light without being brittle. It will not crack on impact like carbon fiber and ABS, or grab the ground and fold under the car like aluminum. It abrades as it wears, which suits a part that runs close to the road, and Verus Engineering notes the same material races in IndyCar, NASCAR and Formula 1.

Description

Verus Engineering Front Splitter Kit for 991.1 Porsche 911 GT3

Verus Engineering’s Front Splitter Kit for 991.1 Porsche 911 GT3 gives the 2014 to 2016 GT3 the front load it needs to run a big rear wing, sized in Verus analysis to balance the UCW wing Verus developed for the car. The blade comes in two halves of carbon thermoplastic, the class of material raced in IndyCar, NASCAR and Formula 1, held by an 11-piece CNC cut and bent bracket kit, a cross brace beam, two splitter ties and four machined clevises. It belongs on a 991.1 GT3 that does regular HPDE days; a car that never sees a circuit gains little from it.

Material and Mounting

Carbon thermoplastic is not brittle, so a knock that would split a carbon fiber or ABS blade leaves this one intact, and it will not dig in and fold under the nose the way aluminum can. Verus kept stick-out moderate so the 991.1 stays usable on the street.

Two-piece carbon thermoplastic blade, left and right halves

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
