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.

I am new to the 996 chassis cars and did not know that the turbo fits what most call the narrow body cars? Or is that an early turbo front bumper?
My car is a 99 coupe and i do not like the stock bumper. Want to upgrade soon...
All fronts of a 996 are the same from 99-01 then the headlights change 02-05. So all 99-01 bumpers will fit your car.. Aero, Turbo, etc...
You can go to 02+ but you will need to also change the front fenders and headlights.

Put on a PORSCHE stripe to help "decorate in" the RS wing.
I had to go to a local sign shop and get pin striping to add to the top and bottom. Before it was hard to tell what it said and it looked too plain.
If I did it again, I would just order it custom from a sign shop with the pin striping as part of the design, but the end result is good and I think it accomplishes the goal.
Here is my 2002 996 Carrera 2. factory sideskirts with chin and rear lips, MA Shaw Aero rear spoiler, BBS Sport Classic II's with the centers powder coated black. Factory Aluminum interior with Aluminum guages, Debadged.
Also hard to see in the first picture is the flat black Carrera side script, the light has to be just right to see it, I put another pic on, kinda large.. sorry
Did you take them apart or did you have someone do it i was thinking about doing the same to my wheels just curious if there is a torque setting when puttin them back together??
There is a local indie Porsche shop in my town who builds club racing cars and sells used 911's... they did it for me. I am SURE there are torque specs though.
There are a couple of things there I would like for my car... the exhaust tips are sexy and I really like the console delete.. both are in my near future, what kind of tips are those?

ur interior looks great....and how comfortable are those gt3 seats? i mean can u get in and out easily? and do u feel like ur stuck in them ? im thinking of getting some soon .
Quote:
Seats are O.K. to get in...
real tricky to get out
...definitely
not
for a daily driver. Completely off limits to (bigger) people. Bottom cushions are less comfortable than stock...you can sit still for ~1 hr max before you need to get out and stretch. Benefit are they hold you tight and communicate the road feel much better plus they are 1/2 the weight of stock (saved ~60lbs total)...oh and they look badass which is most important

Badass car, got a question? what rear end is that specifiacally where did the bumper stops blocks things go, them things irritate me from time to time and will look at the removal of them off my 911 when that day comes.
Quote:
That's a Precision Porsche Turbo replica bumper for 996 C2. It comes without the bumper stops which is a cleaner look. If you have bumper stops you can paint them to match the body color.
Thanks for the prop's!

Thanks for the info, they will be removed or bumper replaced now that I know this, does it illuminate your plate as required? never noticed but assume the euro spec cars do not have the bumper stops as the plate would not fit
I just sold mine... 2003 996 Cab... great car, Seal Grey over full leather. Black top, black leather.
Put a SSK in and rear center console was seal grey as well.
Oh well, she is gone, off to a new owner. Hopefully she will be replaced soon!
