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 3Original post

Relinuca, Check out this very nice Youtube video made by Bobby's Garage, it will walk you through step by step how to disassemble that baffle from the rear spoiler on our car. I bookmarked this link for future reference when I have to replace my ripped baffle or even install a fixed spoiler instead. Cheers, You Tube

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The tech guys at Pelican sent me a video that covered removal of external spoiler cover and some related items. It was an interesting video, for sure; but it did not specifically cover replacement of the grill wall. So I proceeded to tear into the project "on my own". FWIW, the only component that must be removed to gain access to the grill wall fasteners is the fan unit. This part is easy...three bolts and the fan was ought of the way, and then I could remove one of the fasteners. The entire job took me 1.5 hours but I could trim that time down to 1 hour (maybe less) on my second try. If you order a replacement grill wall from Pelican, be sure to also order the recommended fasteners...they're inexpensive and essential. relinuca Porsches Forever
