Tuesday I received the TechArt sport design front lip spoiler from UPS.
Yesterday I did a simple trial fit, just set it up to the car. I have not attempted to actually install it, just wanted to make sure it does seem to fit well. I then dropped it off at the paint shop.
Upon actual install the original black lip is removed and a sturdy supplied bracket/receiver is put in its place, hence the gap the picture shows.

I like the design and the way it looks. Even if left unpainted it would work for me.

I see what you are saying, matches the other black inserts in the bumper.
My vision is for this to be color matched, will post pictures once I get it mounted.
Track days this coming weekend at INDE in Wilcox, AZ, three hour drive each way. Next weekend I am doing two track days at Spring Mountain in Parump, NV. This is the new motorsports country club outside of Las Vegas, the track is FIA certified.

Sun came out today! So we took the Cayman for a drive to the coast for lunch and a walk on the beach. First road trip with the new 20" wheels and tires.

all I did after getting back from Amelia Island (other than going to the grocery store) was wash the bug guts off the car. Such a slacker, I know

Love these exterior mods you are doing... Look forward to seeing it painted. Even if you didn't paint it, the black looks kinda cool ha.
