Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Leading evidence: 'Use fenders' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use fenders' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

I have a 99 C4 and have started to accumulate parts to update it with 996.2 front end parts. My reason? The headlights were very cheap (arriving soon), Litronic, and nearly new and I actually like the looks of the 996.2.
My question is, are their appreciable differences between the 996.1 and 996.2 fenders? Will 996.2 headlights fit in 996.1 fenders? I've studied pictures, but it's hard to tell.
Also, if anyone has some 996.2 fenders for sale, let me know.
Thanks
But some are listed as for 99-04 and others are either 99-01 or 02-04. I'm trying to figure out if there is a significant difference or if they interchange.
out of my league but i would bet the 996.2 fenders are different - hey it sounds like you'll be painting the car? if so, i would seriously consider the side skirts and this "tech-art" rear bumper - i think it looks great and shouldn't add much cost:
and i just looked on ebay and seems to me there is a difference in the headlight shape between 996.1 and 996.2 - below are not the greatest photos of 1st photos 996.1 and second photo 996.2 headlight fender shapes - 996.1 is longer/narrower - 996.2 is shorter wider at base - both have different mounting points/etc:
From the looks of the fender pics I'd think it has to be different too.
Edit: Apparently they are the same.

Fenders are though (as if the pic didn't prove it):

This conversion has been done many times before. You just need fenders, front bumper, headlights.
Make sure you get the headlight trays with the 996.2 fenders just to be on the safe side.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
