Default 996.2 OEM Aero Side Skirts

So i'm trying to find the OEM aero kit side skirts for a 996.2 C2 and Porsche is saying 4-6 months. Does any one have any leads on a set for sale> If not I've been thinking about an aftermarket poly option such as the FVD's below.

https://www.fvd.net/us-en/FVD5599960...yurethane.html

Thoughts or advice are much appreciated?

I bought these (the whole kit actually) and they are ready to go to paint. Better Bodies - Motorsport Design (gt3tek.com)
The fitment looks good, the install will be another story I'm sure

Check with some of the larger dealers, they may have them in stock.
I ordered mine from Sunset Porsche and they shipped the next day.

I bought these as well and painted/installed them 3 weeks ago. Overall, pretty good. There were some small holes that needed to be filled. I left them in the sun before painting so that they could go back to the right shape. The install was easy. The only thing bad was the driver's side skirt was about 1/4" longer than it should be. Also, order more side skirt mounting clips than they include. I was given 4, I purchased an extra 10 clips.

Good to know. I test fitted front/back pieces and will do the side skirts before I send off to paint. Looks like I should order some extra clips too from Armando. Appreciate the info.

Note taken on extra clips needed… I’m surprised no one else has tried the FVD… I would love to know the fitment of them compared to GT3tek
