Default side skirts

Does anyone know where if it's possible to get side skirts on a 95 C2 that mimic (look like) those on a 96-98 C2S or C4S/993 TT? My brother says that the skirts are part of the body but in looking at a 993 tt on the net I can't tell. Thanks

I know that Gert offers Aero kit and RS shirts, but which side skirts are you suggesting that look like WB skirts that will fit a NB ? I am not aware of any that dulicate this look. Can you provide a link ?

To use the widebody side skirts you would need to swap to the wide body rear fenders, but you can keep the NB front fenders as they can be modified with extensions. Alternatives are side skirts from Gemballa and Techart, in addition to the factory skirts which are part of the aero package option. IMHO the Techart are the best looking of the three.

I agree. Of the ones that I have seen they are the ones that most fit what I have on the front of the car. I guess in looking at the C2S (96-98) they also have the look that I am going for. Not necessarily the turbo skirts. Thanks for the help guys.

Thanks brother. I think they might have what i'm looking for.

So it looks like the skirts are part of the rear fenders.... Is that correct? If it is then i'm SOL (right?). How do switch out rear fenders? It's like all one piece.

Guess i'm trying to to find something that will go with the CTR front bumper. Ruf told me that they are not making them any more (or they can't get them). So it look as though the CTR bumper stays. Lucked out.
