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.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I'm planning on a Cayman in Carrara White. You guys have provided plenty of info on changing foglights/spears to Black, and changing front spoiler lips to White. But what about painting or removing those Black flaps in front of rear tires? I think I saw somewhere that they just snap off, but can't find the reference. Would removal affect car's stability? I'll get them painted White if that's not a big deal - otherwise I want to get them off.

POST 2Original post

I thought they were to protect against rock / mud / debris? Paul

POST 3Original post

so did i....about a month ago I found out they werent. Aparantly the little flaps in the front essentially serve the same function....aerodyanmics....could have fooled me.

POST 4Original post

Devo i see your coloured wheel centres on not right. bottom of badge should point to air valve./fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/wink_smile.gif

POST 5Original post

Im planning on painting mine on my carrera white....cuts into the body unpainted. Should give sideskirt from flare too =)

POST 6Original post

MiamiCayman: I would LOVE to see a photo of aero-flap painted white, if you do it. And if you do, please let me know what paint you use (and how effective it is). I don't even know yet what the flaps are made of.

POST 7Original post

I'd like to see them painted white too. Please post pics. Shane

POST 8Original post

I know! I almost didn't post the pic because I KNEW Ken would be all over me. /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/embaressed_smile.gif I need to get them turned around. Paul
