Looking at a 2002 which owner says has Factory Aero kit and no non-OEM parts. From everything a can tell from research, this doesn't seem to be factory. I know the wing is optional, but don't they all have the side skirts?

 

I see a rear wing but no side skirts or front bumper.

I believe the aero kit would look like this:

And if he claims it came from the factory with the aerokit, there will be the appropriate option code on the sticker under the front bonnet.

 

Hard to tell from the picture but it might be a Porsche wing which was sold as an option. Aerokit would include front bumper, skirts and a rear wing. It would look like a GT3.

This is the wing I'm thinking about

You CAN order the pieces on that car from the factory. Need the option codes from the car to verify.

 

The following option codes:

C02 XJB XPD 228 265
266 288 411 425 437
438 446 476 513 537
588 601 680 692 939
981 982

I didn't find anything in my search for aero bits among them...

 

RUNAWAY

 

Why? I bought the same factory pieces and put them on my car. Done all the time.

 

That's not the hole kit.

When I see the word "kit" I want the hole damn thing

Should be using the word piece or pieces

Edit: I have not talked to this guy about his car, but if he was trying to sell it with the word kit I would be a little worried that he knows nothing about his own car or he's fibbing about other stuff. IMHO

 

Well, it isn't even the OFFICIAL aero kit as this is the carrera wing not the GT3 wing but I still wouldn't let it bother me if they are indeed factory parts installed correctly with good paint. My .02.

 

Really who cares, if you like the car and the wing looks great, I dont think it matters if the dealer installed it or Porsche did, The owner is mistaken in telling you its a Factory " Kit" but he could be idiot and doesnt know what options his car has. Buy it, drive it and enjoy it.

 

XAA is the option code.
Even with the factory parts, the side skirts never look as tight on the chassis as the factory installed ones (IMHO of course). The ones installed after the fact always seem to have a gap between the chassis and the side skirt.

 

Thanks for the info. The car has sold.... the search continues....

I was gonna reply..but the car is sold.

Anyway...it was NOT a complete aero kit..so its a good thing you did not buy it.

OK carry on..

 

For your ongoing search... The FACTORY aero KIT indeed has side skirts:

 

Copy that...10-4 good buddy....
