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.

16 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 I can get a ducktail for a 996 (1998) supplied in Australia. All I can find is US or UK suppliers. i like the ones used on the CSR Retro cars ex the UK and cost is 1200 pound plus shipping etc. I would prefer to buy locally if anyone knows where to get one. Once I find one, Iwill have a taco shell tail for sale :-) Thanks.

POST 2Original post

A mate is ordering one for his 997 from Germany @PhilH I can ask what he's paying, as they're the suppliers to most UK and US sellers

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Lee. That would be great.

POST 4Original post

Germany don't do a 996 duck mate. Have sent you a text with a link to Getty design

POST 5Original post

Already.... that didn’t take long! (and i get it, enjoy making it yours....)

POST 7Original post

Depending which ducktail you find, I may be keen on your taco shell. Or I may get the same ducktail. That look is really growing on me!

I really like the RPM Technik ducktail from the UK as seen on the Silver 996 CSR car on their website. The "Retro" car with the Fuchs and Pasha interior look great!

POST 9Original post

No worries. The missus has some textas and Liquid Paper ?

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Perfect....as long as the texta is waterproof. Don't want anything dodgy on my car mate!!!!! Although it might have to wait for a week or so.  Heading up to The UK (Oxford) tomorrow to go see my daughter graduate after completing her Masters Degree and Doctorate.  Then to Sweden for 2 days and back next Thursday. Better organise a drive when you get the car back.

POST 14Original post

Whenever that is @PhilH ! Still 3 or so weeks away I reckon

Yes, we sure are. A few long hard years study!  The graduation day was perfect and seeing her in the new gowns was very special. Well worth the quick trip!!  6 days away with 2 days in Oxford, 1 day in Sweden and 3 days travelling ?
