These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Here's one for the real 987 gurus; Are the front fenders differrent between the 987.1 and 987.2 ? I know the lamps and fascias, front and rear are different. And I believe, but can't swear to it, that there were no sheet metal changes between the two. Can somebody confirm one way or another? Thanks.

POST 2Original post

So will the .1 fenders bolt to the .2 or versa visa?? from what I remember the fenders are the same yes except the lips and lights are different on how they attach. man, you got me scratching here… I would ask the guys at Getty design. I know they would know this since they make all those parts anyway

POST 3Original post

I have both parts catalogs. Same part numbers between the two (ex: front left is 98750303102).

POST 4Original post

Thanks for the replies, Zuch, I think you came up with the definitive answer, same part number, same part. Thanks-

POST 5Original post

I know the headlight shape changed with the 987.2 , but given the above post about the same part number for the fender, I guess the shape differed at the point where the headlight adjoined the plastic bumper cover. That was a smart way to do it, with no changes to metal stampings. I believe the same philosphy prevailed at the rear with the revised tailights on the 987.2 ... the change was accommodated by a revised bumper cover.

POST 6Original post

Caymancouver If you think about it, it's a fairly standard change for a mid-cycle refresh. Carry over the multi-die, expensive to change sheet metal and revise the injection molded fascias, which require only one tool per. The original question was predicated on the headlamp shape looking so different between the 987.1 and 987.2 that I was unsure if the fender had also been modified to enable the different lamp perimeters. A clever face-lift indeed.

POST 7Original post

Getty claims they are not interchangeable… the headlights are the issue, and I agree with that…

POST 8Original post

Yup. Not interchangable. The 987.2 headlight shape is diffirent - not only where it meets the bumper.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
