Question Name this fender arch?
Hello,

Was watching drag times 500+ on youtube and saw this 997 with a fender arch.

Does anyone know who makes this arch?

Looks like an air intake to me. Doesn't that thing have a Garrett on it? Likely a custom made part I would guess.

Looks like the strut tower failed and beat the crap out of the fender! Don't like the look.

He, he! Something, perhaps, I'd expect to see on the new 991 Turbo.

I believe it's from the German tuning firm 9ff.
