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.

A pal of mine who also owns a 986 is looking for rear mudguards. The "universal" ones will do the job, but look awful. Does anyone know of custom ones made for Boxsters? These are Miata ones pictured. Thanks!
you can go stock with part numbers:
9865043930001C
9865043940001C
they are about 60 bucks each side and the extra rubber is another 20 buck each side.
annoying as I had one destroyed while a watched a young helper put my car up on a lift.
I'm curious why would you need/want mud flaps on a Boxster? Lots of gravel roads?
I have never seen a 986 specific solution, I would probably remove the wheel well liner and bolt directly into that so that they hung inside the wheel well without touching/damaging the outward facing paint. +1 for stripper girl mud flaps.
I dunno, either, Rick. I really am asking for a friend, I'm not making it up!
I told him that if he really wants mudguards, he should buy the Miata ones pictured to see if he can make them fit. I've never seen them for the 986, either. I don't think they exist.
It was the only thread that had some gravel reference...
Old, but let's reopen it.
Since the rear "end wheel" splash/mud guards do not exist, does anyone have good suggestion (aka existing solution) for protecting paint from gravel?
Say if one wanted to take the car for some less asphalt covered roads... slide it here and there.
thanks in advance

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