I love the clean look of your car without the rear skirts.

Hi Guys. I'm getting ready to have my aerokit painted, so I can install it. Are their any parts that I need other than the front bumper, side skirts with hardware, and the bare taco tail. I bought the gt3 front lip already. I need a gurney lip? Wiring? and something to ram air down the vents, just in front of the taco tail. Thanks for the help.
If you have the OEM spoiler that goes up and down based on your speed, you need a different wiring harness that will make it so that the spoiler light on your dash doesn't stay on all the time. If you do a search, there is partnumbers listed for the wiring harness.
yes... some to consider, will you put the gt-rears, will you paint the gurney flap... also bumperplugs and door plugs, hell while your at it, what about painting the rear wiper delete plug... I think that should be it. Your choice... Its gonna look killer!
Thanks for the info Guys. I really appreciate it. Audi & Chad, I'l keep the front lip and Gurney flap in black to match the wheels.
Thanks Bella.
Wlee, thanks for the wiring harness info. I'll give Sunset a call.
Chsu, thank you.
Red, I like the look of your's without the rear GT parts. I will probably fill in the bumper holes for the plate. No wiper delete plug. This car came without the rear wiper option (different panel). Thanks.
Is there anything that covers the two air induction holes that are in front of the taco tail (like a screen)? Where do I buy the Gurney flap? Thanks again, Mark.
Ben, I love the look of Chsu's car with the GT tail skirts. On the other hand, I love the look of Redridge's without. I have a scratch on my lower rear bumper on the passenger side. The GT tail skirts would cover it up perfectly. I have the other OEM peices. Does anybody know where I can get a decent price on the GT tail skirts?
I'm having the hood repainted when I have everything else done. It has a few rock chips and I want the paint to look perfect. Thanks for the reminder Ben. I either have to repaint the rear bumper, to get it right, or get the skirts. Buying the skirts and having them painted with the other parts, will probably cost the same as having the rear bumper repainted.
Mark... I bought the gt-skirt and had them painted when I installed my aerokit... one day when I get weak Im gonna put them on. I love both looks so its there already painted when I need them. You can get a pair of oem from dps for about $450 and knock off for about $150 on ebay... youll see them once in a while in ebay. The gurney lip is hard to come by and need to get them from a dealer (sunset/suncoast is a good bet). As far as a screen for the wing... they never came with one. I dont think it will do anything anyway since the airflow wont alow any debris to fall in their. FVD sells a scoop for the intake area, but It doesnt look factory anymore... GL with the hunt.
Redridge, you have the nicest 996 ever and you are an encyclopedia of information. Thanks. I think I'm going to have the scratches fixed. I don't want to add on the skirts, just to cover up a scratch. I love the clean look of your car without the rear skirts. They look nice from the side, but I don't like the look from the back.
aside from the functional aspect of the rear skirts (major hairsplittage), i think it gives it the proper width that the narrowbody mk1 sorely needs. having the complete kit is just... that... complete. i love it and while it's teh least important visual piece, it's like finishing off a suit with a matching pocket square. not necessary but makes an impact. good luck im excited for u!
Thanks Ben. I looked at a bunch of pictures featuring aerokit cars here. These two pictures really illustrate my favorite angle for the spats and my least favorite angle.
nah i think it looks great at ever angle. it matches. without it, the rear end is "chinless".
i effen love that car. watch and learn kids.... lowered on 19" mesh, clean silver wheels. aerokit. that's BENJAMIN CHOI style right there. don't give me none of this all blacked out truck wheel, 18" 19s are bling blang bs.
