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.

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 should know this, but...
Porsche listed two Aerokits for the 996 - Cup Aerokit and Carrera Aerokit.
I know the Cup's rear spoiler was the larger GT3 item but were there any other differences? I've a feeling the Cup included trim panels under the rear quarters but I'm not certain.
Cheers

For the MkI 996 the Cup was the the Aero Front Spoiler, side members, and the taco wing. For the MkII just substitute the single plane wing (ala GT3).
The Carrera kit (MkI only) was the same as the Cup but the rear spoiler was the smaller fixed wing type that took the place of the motorized one that is called the "carrera rear spoiler" which also fits the cab.
Gt3 mk1 aero kit did have rear "fins" as an option to complete the kit. These were fins that attached to the side of the regular Carerra rear bumper.
On the mkII kit they actually change out the rear bumper to a new one I believe.
From what I understand too, the taco wing (i have one) is adjustable manually, not that you would want to/need to.
Although the front spoiler is mostly the same looking (mk1 kit has a more rounder look on front and sides, mkII kit is more sharp angle look), the splitter is different. The mk1 splitter is rounded and doesnt go the full length of the front spoiler, mkII does go the full length, and is angled out a bit. mkII looks like it would do a better job of keeping the nose down.
I actually have a mkII front and mkI complete rest of the kit. I changed my front to 02 look with a facelift.
