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.

Its currently having to front bumper resprayed to get rid of some road rash. I cant freakin wait to get it. I currently have a 86 911 with a turbo and a 2005 Lotus Elise wife says one of them has to go!
I am actually thinking of removing the wing. I like the automatic spolier. D
Do you guys know what I could possibly get for it? Or how much to replace the movable spoiler?
Welcome to Rennlist and congrats on getting a sweet looking 996!
Oh yeah, and ....
thanks for posting the @#$%^&* pics, Newbie!
Man, that phrase works in ANY situation!
BTW I have an entire rear deck lid, or just the pop up spoiler (in multiple colors but not red) if you are interested I will make you a screaming deal!!!
the reason I know a little about that wing is a sore subject........I had one, maybe a little bigger even
Sold - with the deck lid its worth quite a bit to the right guy.........
Welcome!
Nice car!
Don't buy anything from Ed, he has a garage full of stuff that doesn't fit his car that he's bought and he'd love to share the love.
Were you drinking when you made this post also? Come on Randy try to be nice. I think the car looks great, which I understand is subjective...many of us on here are not Purists and like a bit of an OEM twist on things.
Hows the golf tournament going btw??
This is poor taste...
Ditto. I've not seen posts from Randy before and I saw two of them in different threads this morning and both made me think that he's a jackass. Nice way to introduce yourself to the group.
After reading through this thread a little bit ago........I thought I remembered seeing a 996 decklid for sale for cheap somewhere. I looked and it was on CL. This person has a complete lid for sale for $100! Looks like it has some scratches, but it's RED and it's CHEAP! I don't think you're going to find one much cheaper than this!

Porsche 996 911 Rear Deck Lid Red - $100 (SF Bay)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Porsche Rear Deck Lid. Guards Red paints kinda faded and has a couple of small scratches. $100FIRM Email for pics can possibly deliver not to south bay though.
A lot of great people here on the forum have been very helpful to me! Small or big........I'd like to try and return some help if I can!
BTW, gota911......was that your black 996 in your screen name pic? I like your double "half-moon" exhaust tips. Were those OE? Any mods required to install them or were they a direct fit? How about the cutouts in the bumper........Did those need to be opened up any? I believe those tips only came originally on 996 Turbos?
Yes, that is my former car, but it was Lapis Blue, not black. They are OE tips and could be ordered as an option on the C2 and the C4/C4S. The original owner of the car ordered them with the car and were a direct fit, no adjustments were necessary to the bumper cover opening.
Notice Tim's factory tips have a large complete oval and a smaller partial oval. The knockoff/after market tips usually get this wrong by making the smaller oval complete and the larger oval partial. It's a dead giveaway and seems to be the majority of the ones I see on the street. Just a FYI....

Thanks for the info and the pics gota911. Your car looks great! I see you also had the Turbo wheels........very nice! Good to know that the exhaust tips are a direct fit! Much more appealing for the DIY installer like me!
I am going to start searching for a set. Is there a specific name for these? What are they called?
ShaneSaw.........thanks for the info. Yes, I have seen some of the aftermarket tips. I didn't catch it at first, but I knew right away that something didn't look right about them. I think I remember seeing some that weren't even oval. They were just 1-1/2 actual round exhaust tips!
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
