Thanks Jsalah.
As you have a C4S there is a much easier solution for your (and any other AWD 997); you can install the RS Side Skirts which give a more aggressive look and are a direct bolt on:

Edit - please note I haven't personally verified fit of the above parts on AWD cars, but it seems like many have done this upgrade,

Nicely done. Thanks for the details. The only exception to your work is that I would have substituted SS fasteners all around. Especially for your area--Oregon.

I chose the plated bolts as they should work well in this climate. Also, I was not able to find a good source for stainless bolts in the size & type I needed. Once I have some time I may look for some titanium bolts.

The rubber trim was used along the top edge of the skirt that makes contact with the rocker panel. You can see it in the closeup pic below:

This looks amazing! Great work!
This may be a dumb question but would something like this work for a 991.2 base?
I find the sides could have a little more to them as I have put on the sports design front lip.
I'm not sure if putting on a 991.2 would require any sort of modification like above.
I think the 991.2 GTS has these on them, but understanding the rear of the car is wider than the base.
Thanks
