Default Someone must know these parts?

I'm new to 993's and was wondering if someone could I.D. the front bumper and rocker panels from these pictures? I have been told they are "RS" type parts. If they are then is the rear bumper also part of these parts/kit or is the rear bumper stock? I know the rear bumper is not shown very well in these pics but I know lots of you know this stuff by heart.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking to understand what it is and who made the parts if they are aftermarket.

Thanks,

Do a search on "RS look" or similar on the 993 board. Also look up posts by user Bill Verburg, our resident RS-a-holic or RS-fountain-of-knowledge, depending on your perspective.

Better Bodies aka user "GT3 TEK" (http://www.gt3tek.com/) is a RL sponsor makes the front splitters and the side skirt. Rear bumper is the same IIRC. There are other sources of the parts, Porsche-factory ($$$) and otherwise as well. (Disclosure: I know Joel, who runs Better Bodies, from PCA events.)

Welcome to the dark side

Those are all factory RS pieces.
Bumper is same as a regular C2, you just swap out the lower splitters
Rocker panels are RS specific
Spoiler is RS specific
Rear bumper is same.

Porsche sells the complete package pn 000 044 800 13

or individual pieces
Left Splitter - 993.505.521.02
Right Splitter - 993.505.522.02
Left reinforcement - 993.505.525.01
Right reinforcement - 993.505.526.01
Center reinforcement - 993.505.523.01

Left Rocker - 993.559.125.01
Right Rocker - 993.559.126.01
Left reinforcement - ??
Right reinforcement - ??
Mounting Bracket (2) - 993.559.509.00

Spoiler - 993.512.119.00 (reuse stock grill)

If you decide to go aftermarket, I would avoid fiberglass splitters the factory pieces are urethane and can withstand minor scrapes and bumps that fiberglass cannot.... but you probably already knew that.

For the race car I used MA Shaw aftermarket pieces and have been very pleased.

Best of Luck

Perfect! Thank you for the link to the RS thread from hell. And the names of the resident experts.

Part numbers and everything. I knew someone has this info at their fingertips. Rennlisters come through again.

Sincerely.
