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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys, I ripped up the front driver side lower body area of my 2002 Boxster. I have no idea what the part is called and I've searched the forums looking for it. It's the underneath area where the black in this photo is near the wheel. Any ideas? It tore it pretty good and I had to tape it to keep it from rubbing. I searched words such as body liner, front lip etc. Any tips would be appreciated.

POST 3Original post

The black piece on the bottom corner is called "Bumper Side Trim". I just had to order a few for my cars. About $45 each.

POST 5Original post

It's called the Bumper Cover and several model front ends fit. I've got a 996.1 cover on my '03 Boxster. You tube video will show you how to get it off. Takes about 20 minutes.

Is this what you're talking about 986-504-393-00-01 I had to buy one for the right side when I hit the curb

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah, that is the part. I guess it hit with more force than I thought. It also damaged the wheel housing liner. (see pic.) More so than the bumper trim. And I wasn't even drinking! This is the right part that goes in front of the bumper trim right? I need to order it also. EGAD!

I has to replace that one as well for the front left. I got 3 wheels up the curb. I also had to replace the strut, hub carrier, all the control arms, axle, the big plastic panel under the car, and other stuff.

Hello Jasper, how did you car turned out after the alignment? Back to normal? :-)

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Suncoast canceled my order. Any ideas where I can buy this part? I shaved off the broken area underneath the tire so it wouldn't rub. (no saving it.) Now the wheel well isn't fitting snug. I tried pelican but can't seem to find it there either. (see pic) this is the part I need right? Cant get the image to show. Sorry guys. not sure why. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/331014641370661470/
