The suffix O1C is the color code for black. I have an old one at home and I can check the part number for the 92 model year. The replacement was slightly different where the seal ran under the radiator support.


edit..the same on the old part 505 175 00

Thanks — ordered a new one. Old one had a tear and I’m having my 968 Turbo S spoiler repainted, so I figure it’s a good time for a replacement.
