The smaller wing needs to be installed with the lip that comes with it (or the full GT3 front as wlee did).

The blade wing (Cup II) can NOT be installed without the entire front spoiler.
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.

Just wanted to post a couple pics (though not great lighting) of my GT3 bumper and sideskirts on my 01 996 Cab. It was pretty easy to put the new pieces on with thanks to Dell with the PDF directions he sent onto me!!
So that now completes my version of the aerokit as I did the wing at the end of last year!!!
WOW!!!! That looks awesome
I really like the grill covers but you mihgt experience hihger than usual temps with the restirictive airflow.
Just loose the front plate and it will be complete
Just as an aside for those interested in the mesh inserts - if I had to do it over again, I'd do what others have done and just go to the hardware store and buy a sheet of the mesh. With the "already" cut pieces from Cargraphics, you still need to glue them into place..which requires that you have to massage the grill some to get it to fit flat so that you can glue it down. Since you have to go thru that part, it seems as though it would be a whole lot cheaper just buying a large sheet and cutting out the pieces you need. Oh well, I guess I learned the more expensive way!
That looks sweet! I'm still waiting on my wing from Dayton then hopefully you can help me with my aerokit installation. Maybe it'll go quicker with 2 people.
Very, very nice. I think I need to get me that GT3 bumper cover and side skirts next time my bumper cover needs to be replaced. Your paint job looks great too.
I love it! I really like the complete kit. Usually on the cabs I do not like the rear spoiler; however, your is just perfect. Which spoiler is it? I thought you could not use the standard GT3 on a Cab. I need that Wing!!!
Jamy is correct....That wing is the Carerra wing (996-512-903-00-G2X) however it is not specific to the CAB. However, it is the only one that will fit the CAB. The "GT3" wing is the Aero wing that looks like a blade sitting on top of two posts and comes with the Cup Aero Kit II or can be ordered seperately (996 512 901 02 GXA). Porsche will NOT allow the Cup wing to be installed without the front spoiler and IMHO looks bad without it anyway. The smaller wing needs to be installed with the lip that comes with it (or the full GT3 front as wlee did). The blade wing (Cup II) can NOT be installed without the entire front spoiler.
Yup - Its the carrera wing..the front bumper and side skirt pieces are OEM Porsche...the wing is a replica. I got all the pieces from Dayton at Departstop. He gets the pieces painted and then ships it to you. I had problems with getting the wing last year, but Dayton and I came to an "understanding" and I purchased the bumper and the sideskirts recently with no real issues!! The painter he uses is excellent with a perfect match on my car!
wlee, that's one sexy car with the full aerokit! Amazing paint-match, to be sure. I need to get the aerokit (minus the wing) for my '99 as well. Mind if I ask how much you paid for the front bumper and sideskirts from Dayton, including the paint job? The 5-spoke Carrera wheels really accent the kit quite well.
Also, would you send me the PDF on the install when you get a chance? Thanks!

Also, wlee, being my usual **** self, I noticed your left painted bumperette didn't seem well fitted. You might want to loosen the torx screw and push it up flushed against the topside before re-tightening it.
Dell - I guess I never thought about the stuff not matching - but you are right!! If I had to return the parts it would have sucked as the bumper came freight!!!
UCube - Give Dayton a call and he'll give you a price. I bought the wing seperately from the rest of the stuff and maybe he'll give you a deal if you get it all together. I think all 3 pieces together was in the mid 3K???
