I know this is a bit of a hijack, but were they original 968 skirts? Or the "UKclubbsport" replicas made for the 944?

They are genuine 968, and they don't fit worth a cr@p without a LOT of work. You can't really see in the picture but they are fastened with stainless screws from the outside. I like the "track slag" look so I'm happy with that but if there is one thing I have done to the car that was simply not worth the pain that was it. I could have bonded them on without much more effort I guess and got the smooth look but I was worried they'd either come off again when I didn't want them to or not come off when I need them to.

Just thought - if you mean Club Autosport then I have heard little but bad things about their products. Admittedly I don't know about 968 style skirts but their teardrop mirror kit for example is supposedly a joke.

A quick shot of Kinesis 18's (from the 930) on the 951. Looks better from a few more steps back....

Fen, that is awesome. I love the rear wing the most. Is that a van sweeden part?

I don't know who makes it but I got it from Essential Styling in the UK.

I don't know if you can see in the picture (well, you can't see anything right now as fotopic has been taken down for maintenance ) but the centre section is real carbon fibre.

Rick (eastendr) was kind enough to take some pics of it at Silverstone on Wednesday here and even a video here. I fitted the skirts and meshed the holes in the bumper after the track session.

Not really, when you imagine how tricky it could be. I had the 968 style spoiler to start with though.
