Thanks. Here's a couple landscape shots.

Default No need to break the tabs

Those tabs are intended to reinforce the side skirt once are snapped into the inner form

hello, I also want to install side skirts on my 992 C2S and I was wondering where you ordered them? At the dealer they are not sure of the color and the model

Thanks

1) remove three screws in rear and one in front (t20 bit and t30 bit). also remove the big plastic screws
2) pull out current skirts with some finesse and brute force
3) remove excess plastic from tabs of new skirts
4) transfer over metal clips to new skirts
5) insert new skirts with tabs aligned
6) replace t20/t30 screws and plastic “screws”

Planning to wash the car this week and get some proper photos, but hope this helps in the meantime.



Stubby screwdriver

Three screws to remove on rear. One in front (not pictured). This was when I installed sport cats, unfortunately did not have lift access for this.

Old skirt and new skirt

Excess plastic on tabs of new skirt. Break off.

Metal clips to transfer

Finished product. Don’t mind the dirty car.

The part numbers were provided earlier in the thread - I went through this with my dealer recently. I just gave them this screencap and they ran with it.

Quick aside - worth noting that the price is under 500 bucks from my dealer's parts dept. A *lot* cheaper than ordering the SD side skirts from the factory.

I've had mine on for a few thousand miles now and I think they are really helping to minimize the pelting of debris on the rear fenders.

I have it on my Gt Silver car but have the classic wheels.
I think it looks fine not painted. Plus I don't want to deal with rock chips.
