It’s a 996.2 front bumper so could only use the skirts
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.

Been looking at 996 GT3 side skirts to put on a 996.1 C2 and the best I can find is some Aerokit2 landed for circa Aud $2k+ a bit for import fees etc.
BBMD have polyurethane skirts for about half that and for similar money could get the full kit including front lip and rear diffuser.
From online research they seem to be regularly recommended on overseas forums and their products described as a good fit with little work required.
Seeing if any Aussies have experience with products, in particular the front lip and rear diffuser. What do they look like in the flesh, alright or a bit naff as they are a part cover the bumpers. Is there much of a gap at the connecting line?
I've just ordered the BBMD GT3Tek ones. We'll see how they work out, but have you checked out the fibreglass ones being sold on FB market place at the moment?
Yes I have seen those and registered interest to purchase but haven’t had a definitive reply. It’s a 996.2 front bumper so could only use the skirts
Bit nervous with fibreglass and it’s robustness long term as the most likely first contact point.
Payment got sorted yesterday, Paypal was being a pain. Yep, will be interesting, Craig was fairly happy with the fit of his ducktail, so hope all will be OK. Ducktail is glass and probably need some fettling to fit, but hopefully the polyurethane of the skirts and front lip will be a straight 3M tape on - have you checked out the Youtube clips for this? Looks pretty straight forward.....
As with all fibreglass aftermarket car products, they can do with some fettling if your focus is on even gaps.
The 996 ducktail is a good fit but for the retentive-type owner could have required additional minor fibreglass work. For me, I was comfortable that it met my requirements and other than having it painted had it installed as delivered.
😎
That’s definitely part of the attraction, on YouTube they definitely make it look quite easy to fit. Couple of the forums suggest checking that it is genuine 3M tape and swapping if it’s not.
Hi Craig,
where did you get the ducktail from? Have been looking for one but want one with a brake light if possible. RPM Technik in the UK have an excellent carbon fibre ducktail but they no longer make it with the brake light hole.
I ordered a carbon fibre one from
https://www.stuttgart-classica.co.uk/bodyexterior/996-ducktail-6hm7j
About 7 weeks ago as you found RPM aren’t making ones with a brake light. Should be finished shortly, only aspect is that shipping has increased a lot circa £400 now.
Looks like order separated, Ducktail delivered today, hopefully sideskirts and lower front spoiler soon. Will give then 5/10 for packaging, adequate but only just, a bit tatty when it arrived but the ducktail is intact. Product appears to be reasonably mass produced, for example by fitment of grills, but probably fair value for the price 7.5/10.
Nice one Peter. As we discussed, the gaps aren't quite there but that is pretty much the same with any fibreglass panel.
I have been happy with mine. I did the rear wiper delete recently as well.
Nah, have been flat out with work and house stuff. Hopefully get to later in November. I seem to have straightened the plastic out by leaving it in the sun clamped to some bits of timber, so at least that has come right
