Not sure I see the "rear end" damage or agree with its estimated value but looks clean with nice options
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.

Outcome without a verified action link
Since it is being flipped, they probably "fixed it" as inexpensively as possible.

Figured someone may be interested. Not sure I see the "rear end" damage or agree with its estimated value but looks clean with nice options
Copart isn't just wrecked vehicles. It's also bank repossessions, dealers selling excess/unwanted inventory, etc. The car could have been a trade-in at a dealer who didn't want to resell a branded title car.
It wouldn't surprise me if the $13.2k bid is from the owner (shill bid). Since it is being flipped, they probably "fixed it" as inexpensively as possible.
Rear end damage 'witness marks' are the painted metal strip that attaches the top of the bumper cover by 4 screws (between rear lights, It's normally black), no insignia on the back and also the non-factory exhaust tips.
Sill covers are 996.2 Aero so not factory fitted.
Rear wing is the smaller aerokit version as opposed to the gt3 aerokit, could well be factory fitted but I don't know how the factory one looks on the inside.
Rubber seal is missing from engine cover
Factory Carrera rear wing:
Front bumper cover shows painted cover of center radiator which would be black in stock form.
Silver seat backs on a red car makes me think they were swapped out.
Look for people that have actually used copart. Unless you have a dealer license in the state of the vehicle, plan to pay another 2k in fees and taxes. In my research it�s cheaper to wait for a person to person car you want instead.
The Copart car looks like someone found the wing and tried to mount it on the cheap. A you can see on my lid, there is a plastic cover that goes over the rectangular opening by the latch. They get brittle from engine heat and crack apart. I'm not surprised they didn't replace it because depending where you buy it, it's between $200.00 & $260.00. Also the mounting flanges for the wing on the Copart car are incorrect. As you can see on mine, they're supposed to be triangular shaped. The correct ones are $80.00 each so I assume they just bodged something together. The Copart wing is only being held on by those those two funky homemade ones. There is supposed to be one more large bolt on each side below them.
I'd say the rear end damage statement was correct. I'm pretty sure the rear bumperettes on the 99 would have been dark gray - not body colored. The back has been repainted as was the front aero bumper cover which is why the center is red (as was previously pointed out by hardtailer. Still, as long as its mechanically sorted, if could be a nice deal for someone depending on the reserve. Those hardback sport seats do not come cheap. And it's definitely been lowered, so it has some suspension work done.
