Question OEM Bra

Does the Porsche OEM Bra (Part #503 993 00) fit both the narrow body and S front ends? I am unsure of whether or not the "Turbo" front spoiler on the C2S would make a difference.

Thanks.

I'd stay away from using a bra.. It's mostly more trouble than it's worth.

You just need a turbo bra if you have a turbo front bumper.

I swore off the bra (Shades of the 60's!) after a factory bra blew off my car at 90 mph. Then it came time to go out to the track again and I just hate rock chips...I decided to give it one more chance.

This time I punched brass "O" rings on the tabs that fit inside the hood. I then used a bungee cord to connect to the floor of the trunk on a diagonal. Same treatment for the other side.

Next, I punched the "O" rings into the front of the bra, toward the bottom, at both sides of the front grill. Bungee coars again to the lower A arms...they have a hole that the bungee cord readily hooks in to.

End result, 130 mph+ at California Speedway, the bra didn't budge. I will use the bra for track events and long road trips. With the mods suggested above, the bra works with no problem.

Just be certain to keep the paintwork under the bra clean and dry...off to bed for me...too late for anymore posting. <img src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" border="0" alt="[bigbye]" />
