Arctic-911

I'm looking for a deck (engine) lid for a 2006 911 4s with the "X51 Power Kit". I've talked to what seems like dozens of parts guys and keep getting 997-512-011-04-GRV. Unfortunately, this part # does not have the two air intakes that are need for the X51. No one can tell me how the original parts that fit actually came about. Was the extra intake cut out by Porsche for each X51 model once ordered by the customer? Doesn't seem likely, but maybe. I've attached a few images of deck lids with two air-intakes to prove they do actually exist. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help, but it looks like that part is the Spoiler "Lower Part", not the actual deck (engine) lid.

I have the 2 hard rubber inserts if you wind up needing a set.

Thanks for the offer. I just may need them, I'll let you know. How did you come by them?

This says that the X51 kit instructions involve cutting the deck lid at factory. No part #.

Great find! Thanks for your help. Now I have to find the template. I've been searching, but it seems to be similar to Sasquatch, people have heard of it, but never seen it.

The guy I bought my car from let them go with the car. They are new. I'll likely never need them.
Part number: 997.110.250.00
and: 997.110.252.00

This maybe useful?

Im looking for the factory spoiler for 997.2 and everyone is telling me the diff between the 997.1 and 997.2 deck lids is the number of air intake holes. The 997.1 has 1 and the 997.2 has 2.

I believe the 997.1 turbo has 2 intake holes.

good luck.

An air saw is the part number. I did this to mine. The snorkels are two different part numbers tho. The template is the x51 snorkel. Trace it on.

don’t over complicate this man- you are literally cutting a hole in the car. That’s it, that’s all.

Had the body shop cut mine on my old 997 4S when I added the Fabspeed intake so there would be more airflow to it. I didn't put the black plastic overlay on it, just left it open. Seemed to work perfectly.

Thanks for all the help. I was actually able to get a copy of the actual Porsche pdf file that shows how to install the X51 package that includes the cutting template. Sorry I didn't get this earlier, spent alot of hours trying to find a non-existent part.

I've always wondered about having the right side hole on my 997.1 with EvoMS intake. Doesn't make sense to me how they designed the "box" part with a pseudo-seal to the deck lid. Seems more cool air coming into that space would be beneficial.
