You’re thinking about Robert, they sound similar but are actually different.

Could be on to something there......I have the earliest version of the lower spoiler without the intermediate baffle and without the center support. I thought that I remember that these mounted on either side of the core support, but if they do, they serve no purpose on the 83 style spoiler.

Those are brackets for the fog lamp housing. Have them on my 86 NA.

944 501 375 00.

Impressive.

However, I still like calling them 'Rupert'.

It's known as a "Johnson Rod". 😁 Go to Porsche's website and download the P.E.T.
