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

Figured I would share my 2002 6 speed that I've been putting together for about 1 year now. Finally got my hands on a nice set of LMs but I'm now in the process of building a set of E88s for it. Enjoy!�� Some photos now with the E88s mounted.

POST 2Original post

Looks cool....but where do you go with it that you need the roof box?

I typically don't like the fake 997 GT3RS bumper mod, but it looks really good in this case Maybe it's the roof box that completes it and makes it work for me Good eye for image composition too. +996 Internets to you sir!

Thanks bud! But it's actually a M's machine works front bumper.

Good answer!! Haha

POST 7Original post

I like the front bumper, but I'd rip that sucker off or destroy it in short order. Too many driveways around here. As far as the crap box on the roof - I'll pass. Unless that's an AWACS 996, in which case I approve. OP, I think you need shims for the cargo box so you can adjust the rake. If you can get the rear end high enough, I think you'll get more downforce.

POST 8Original post

On the plus side, it's only a Sauber, so it's not like going airborne is going to be the thing that knocks them out of the points...

Little bit of an update. Here are the e88s completely refinished. wrapping them with 245/35 ,315/30 Michelins

POST 12Original post

Looking good, did you change the size or just have them polished?

POST 13Original post

Awesome pictures! And awesome looking car! Well done! I never thought a roof box would look good on a 996, but you pulled it off. But for more awesome points swap it for a surf board

POST 14Original post

Nice pics & nice car! Do you live in Westchase?

Thanks man. Sanded and polished the lips by hand and refinished the faces. Haha thanks the box comes in handy pretty often. Thanks! Central Florida.

POST 16Original post

Could you please share the details on the storage box? I could do with some more storage space sometimes!!

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 14189685

The storage box is actually a oem Porsche ski box 👍🏻 I believe you can purchase it directly from Porsche.

POST 19Original post

000 044 000 35 Guessing that the roof racks would be a pre-requisite for this, part number on those is: Coupe: 996 801 105 00 Cabriolet: 996 0801 055 00 Targa: 996 801 065 00 All part of Touring/Roof transport system with options such as: Racing bike carrier, bike carrier, roof box or ski/snowboard carrier for all your outdoor adventures!

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's it! A little update. Mounted up the e88s today.

POST 23Original post

Get the Porsche bars. They are pricey but for fantastic and don't touch the body of the car. But I don't recommend the Porsche box. Tons of other options. Rack is made by Thule so most their attachments fit. Most Yakima do as well. They are very handy. I use a cage regularly. Gets the kids and their **** back and forth to games, skate park, weekend trips, etc. box will be coming soon. photo817.jpg

POST 24Original post

the car looks really good; nice stance and wheels. I'll pass on the roof rack, though. That's what my X5 is for

POST 25Original post

Looks perfect - man that front lip is close to the ground What suspension are you running

Digging up an old thread as I am a proud new owner of a 996.2. Any idea where I can get that aero kit? I'm located on the West Coast of Florida.
