Sorry, I cannot. I didn't note the part numbers on the skirts prior to installing them and am not taking them off to get the number. I ordered the skirts from Suncoast in the .1 GT3 RS section using the "side skirt upgrade" and they were the correct wider .2 RS skirt. Suncoast quoted a 3 month wait for them but I actually received them in 3 weeks. This was back in march though. Suncoast has been really good to deal with. I'd order with confidence but that's JMO. I have a set of .2 wing end plates on order now.

Anyone figure out how to get the .2 RS side skirts to fit correctly on a .2 GT3 without the gap towards the rear of the car?

Hey guys, sorry for disappearing! Life had me going for a while and now I'm just getting some time with this social distancing thing...

Yes I did install the second set and was able to close the gap a tiny bit, enough to an acceptable tolerance. It still doesn't fit perfectly but being that my car is black, it doesn't show too much. I'll take some pics and post them here soon.

When I first attempted this I made the V shape cut to bend the rear side of the side skirt in. Then I realized that instead of trying to bend it in to conform with the curvature of the body, I can hide the difference in curvature below the body.

My second attempt, I didn't make the V shape cut, but instead skipped the 3rd and 4th fasteners (the skirt is still on very tight with all the underbody clips) hiding the difference in curvature under the body. Worked pretty well.

Pics to follow

Actually I found these 2 photos from my phone so before I forget, I'll go ahead and leave them here. I know they don't show the gap well.

Are the 991.1 RS side skirts a bit smaller than the 991.2 RS version?
Are they a direct replacement?
For me, the .2RS skirts are too wide.

Yes the .1 skirts are less aggressive than .2 and they will probably fit the same way if you skip clips 3&4

More pics please. Trying to understand what you mean by hiding the different in curvature under the body. Thanks.

Read all of this, thinking someone else would have asked this question. Will these fit a 991.2 C4S the same way, with slight mods needed?

I updated my .1 with the .2 side skirts sourced from Suncoast (arrived quickly). Here are a couple pics of them side by side.
