The TT rear bumper can be installed easily enough, but it has nothing to do with widening the tail lights.

In order to have the C4S, Turbo, and GT2, rear brake lights I am sure you would have to change the rear fenders to a C4S.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok, I bought a used 996 Carrera 2 a month ago and now I have seen a couple of 996 4S and I start really liking it. I don't want to buy a 4S for two reasons: 1. it is a 4 wheel drive 2. it is too heavy but I really like the front and rear bumpers but mainly the rear lights. The bumpers is something of factible to add on my C2. But I guess the lights it is more difficult to change because they are wider. Do you have solutions to that? Do you know someone who has done this work of putting 4S rear lights on a normal C2? thank you in advance

POST 2Original post

I've "converted" my 02 Cab narrowbody with a turbo nose and a TT rear rear end. I don't quite understand what you mean by "the lights" If your's is pre 02 then there are after market "turbo look" front ends that look very nice. The TT rear bumper can be installed easily enough, but it has nothing to do with widening the tail lights. That sounds like a major job. Let me know if you need any more info.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank Don sorry for my english I think I meant the rear stops, plus the red line that only the 4S has! I have the 2002 model so the front lights are ok. PS: could you post some pics of the front of your car? thank you in advance

POST 4Original post

I understand what he means. He is referring to the taillights. In the widebodies the tail lights are much more substantial. They are larger, and don't have white squares in the middle of the red strip. Take a look at the taillights on the C4S, Turbo, or GT2 versus those on the C2 or GT3. I don't think you will have much luck adding those taillights.

POST 5Original post

ohhhhh, but the C4S it is sweet your missing out man!

POST 6Original post

if interested, i am selling my c4s front bumper and rear wing if interested. email me at [email removed] if interested.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you for the replies. Looking carefully to the body of the 4S and the normal C2, I noticed that the rear is different and that the 4S taillights are wider so need more space to fit in a C2 body. Briefly I think it is impossible unless I change all the rear body. However front and rear bumpers with a Cargraphic line (thank you dpblessing ) would probably satisfy what I was looking for x 03-C4S : check your PM

POST 8Original post

In order to have the C4S, Turbo, and GT2, rear brake lights I am sure you would have to change the rear fenders to a C4S.

POST 9Original post

And maybe even more - I'm sure that the C4S has a different engine lid than the narrow body; this might effect the fit of the rear lights as well. I'm guessing "lots" of the rear end changes would be required. Much cost, no real C4S benifits.

POST 10Original post

Where is a good place in the US-Chicago to purchase Cargraphic parts at??? Thanks Bob

POST 11Original post

rear end lid is the same, lights and quarter panels are different.

POST 12Original post

captain... it's nice you want to mod your C2. but C4S is not too heavy and it's not really 4WD... i mean you only get 7% power to front. i tracked both my C2 and C4S, one is as fast as another and you can throttle steer either one very well. you have to paly with the antisway bar on C4S to rid understeer that's about all.
