Default GT3RS Side rocker (skirt) on Turbo?

Hello,

Anyone know is the GT3RS side rockers/skirt are different from the turbo?
As from pictures they look different, anyone tried to fit those on turbo?
And maybe someone knows a part number?




I found those: https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKU991SILL.html but as i understand they are same as turbo/aero kit stock skirts


Thanks

Hi yes the are different in looks to the turbo ones with a different part number as the gt3 rs ones are more wider/flared all round

I can't see why the won't fit as the turbo and gt3 rs use the same rear quarter panel, side sill etc so should fit straight on

How they will look is another story but i do have a set which weren't exactly that pricey new that i still haven't managed to go and fit due to my laziness something that is on the do to do list.....

If anyone has fitted some to the turbo can they post some pics

Thanks

Take a look:

Hi i do have the part numbers indeed

1.) 991 504 595 90 1E0 Left Side (GT3 RS)

2.) 991 504 596 90 1E0 Right Side (GT3 RS)

For the Turbo Model its:

3.) 991 504 595 01 1E0 Left Side (Turbo/S)

4.) 991 504 596 01 1E0 Right Side (Turbo/S)

Upon checking the part numbers the GT3 (non RS, R & Turbo models) & all the normal 991's share the same part number so i assume all these side skirts are the same?

5.) 991 504 595 02 1E0 Left Side

6.) 991 504 596 02 1E0 Right Side

The 991R

7.) 991 504 595 03 1E0 Left Side (991R)

8.) 991 504 596 03 1E0 Right Side (991R)

When i was purchasing the 991 GT3 RS one's i had a set of 991 GT3 to compare with and the RS one's looked more flared and aggressive hence i went down the RS route

Didn't know the 991R one's had a different part number perhaps i could've compared those aswell though i reckon the RS will be the best bet

Just need to get out and fit them

Thanks for part numbers, i will do my research.
And yes RS looks more aggressive indeed, but comparing to 991.2 4S they look kind the same..

Looks like you added the front trim from the aerokit as well? I'm contemplating that for my '18.

Very very cool decision. They perfectly blend with the Aerokit. I have held back on the aerokit solely because the side skirts are just too unremarkable for the price we pay. You may have changed my mind . Thanks
Ps. I've been trying to figure out if the gt3rs carbon fiber hood will retro fit my 991 TTS since a few oem are being sold on EBay from a Polish site.... any ideas?

Looks great. I wish it was a part of the Aerokit without having to add it later. Come on, Porsche...

Well it was really cheap, skirts 470 EUR from Porsche dealer and extra 240 EUR for painting/fitting

I looked at USA Suncoust dealer they are cheaper!
