Has anyone installed one of these or have one on their car?
Thanks

Part # 997 505 557 00 available from your local dealer, it is a spoiler to help the air escape from the center rad duct, the rectangle openings behind the spoiler in the pic above.
I would assume only cars with factory center radiator would have this from the factory, but i could be wrong

Is that part (997 505 557 00) really needed? Mine scrapes on the driveway twice a day and a few of the tabs are ripped, so i need to crawl under there once a week put it back in place. I was considering buying a new one, but maybe i don't need it at all. Thoughts?

I had mine rubbed off finally after several years of cumulative scrapings so I just gave up on it. (I replaced it once). I discovered that the 991 model does not have anything like it on theirs so I figured I could do without it, particularly since I am rarely in higher speed ranges since I left Germany. I believe them to be common to all 997.1 cars (and probably 997.2) with or without the center radiator. It does something, but I sure don't feel a difference between having it and not having it.
(If you really want one, go look around medical buildings, particularly where there are high parking lot chocks. Doctors probably lose them regularly--that's where I found my spare).

So that's what happened to mine? I bought a replacement a few years ago, lost mine somewhere...
