Guess I'll need to get the box down and have another look. Could Porsche have changed the part along the way?

The OEM PN# 993.505.982.00

Here it is. The fit is not that great. Because you only have two studs, one on either side, you must glue the piece on. On all that I have seen, You tell this.

Here's a photo of the part number on the spoiler itself. It's obviously not the same as the number on the box.

That' not OEM ...The parts department here in NY just sold one and he said it was urethane. I think someone made a switch with yours.

I hear what you're saying but the original equipment spoiler on my car isn't PU; it's fiberglass. And the part number in the picture I've posted above, while not the same as the number on the box (993 505 982 00), is in the family of spoiler and trim part numbers as in the Tech Equipment catalog.

I'm not trying to call anyone a liar here but... is there anyone who has personally held a Turbo S spoiler in their hand and can state if it's fiberglass or PU? There are lots of folks who seem to be quoting what others have said and told them.

Again, not trying to wind anyone up, just requesting first hand experience. If you have such a spoiler on your car you can tell pretty quickly if it's fiberglass or PU; fiberglass won't give much at all whereas PU will deflect. And PU will sound "soft" when flicked with a fingernail whereas fibeglass will "click".

Mine is PU. Can I get a witness!

As I stated earlier in this thread, I have installed two of these, both factory pieces. They are not fiberglass, they are polyurethane. In the beginning, I bought a piece from MA Shaw, that was fiberglass and looked like the one you have.

Why don't you run the number (000 044 800 21) at the dealer at see what they say?

All I can say is if the one I ordered for $650.00 from Porsche comes in fiberglass, It's going back.
I have found fiberglass ones for $300.00.
My parts guy just sold one last week and he took it out of the box and it was PU.

Thats not a Porsche part number.

Thank God for Rennlist.

I am looking at a brand new front lip I bought from Sunset Porsche last month. It appears to be PU, has only two mounting studs and has the p/n 993 505 582 00 embossed on the outside bottom of the lip.

OK, thanks guys. I clearly should have re-read the previous posts more carefully.

I'm going to look under my car and see what part number is stamped on my spoiler that was installed at build time, if it's visible when installed.

Close, But not exactly
Plus it wouldn't hurt if he ran the number by the dealer anyway.
