Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone know if a 997 engine decklid will fit on a 996? If not, is there an after market look alike 997 decklid for the 996? I am a big fan of the more aggressive looking decklid and would love the look on my 4s. Thanks a bunch. SM 04 c4s cab

POST 2Original post

i think the panel may be too wide. afterall, didn't they increas the track of the 997?

POST 3Original post

Very old thread, but surprising that in all these years, nobody seems to have developed a 4-gill 997-style wing to fit a 996 decklid. It might even look okay with the new Dectane-style rear lights that are becoming so popular.

POST 4Original post

Personally, I really dislike the look of the 997 engine cover. If I had a 997 I'd probably try to retrofit one from a 996.
