OP, sorry you weren't made aware that you can't get the AeroKit and you got your hopes up. The stop sale has been in play since the end of June. It will not be available for some time.

Thanks, I thought it had come back, guess I never missed anything as my order did not go in until September..

I was just made aware of a 2022 aerokit S available in manual - which I didn't think existed due to stop sale. Chalk exterior with black and red interior. Can pass along info.

Hey what happened to your side skirts?

How come a fair amount of people get the aero kit but not the side skirts

What happened to the side skirts........how come you didn't get those?

The stop sale went into effect 7/1/21, so AeroKit 2022’s with allocation dates prior to 7/1/21 were still produced (…mostly! Some with pre-7/1/21 allocation dates still had to remove their AeroKits to reach V200).

The Sport Design side skirts are liked by some, but disliked by others. To my eye, the SD side shirts give the car a droopy appearance from the side because the lower portion of the rear bumper is still matte black and the front lip has a slight upward angle to it (…from the side). With the regular side skirts, it better aligns with the black on the rear bumper and the front lip appears lower.

I see your point.....i was thinking of just getting the side skirts and without the front and rear aero changes.......the rear bumper on the stock is color instead of black. I think it might give it a lower to the ground look. Still undecided.

The rear Sport Design bumper has the lower black portion I was referring to.

I think the 992s look good with or without side skirts. Without gives it a cleaner classic look. With side skirts gives it a more aggressive but slightly busier look. It does make the car look a bit lower and there are more than a few of us with standard F and R bumpers plus side skirts. In fact, I think the side skirts match the standard rear bumper better because it has a body colored line that runs the entire bottom of the rear bumper whereas the sport design rear bumper has those shark fins, that doesn't seem to match anything else on the car, then a completely black lower bumper panel.

If you are fortunate enough to get the full aerokit w/ rear wing, I think the side skirts are a no brainer to finish off that really agressive look. Again, just my opinion as I know many who don't have side skirts on their aerokit cars too and they still look great.
