997 GT2 RS side skirts. Part number? This is what was on the box they came in. The part on the actual piece was different and the sticker on the part was cut off but it's still a readable guess, which I read as the part number on the box. I couldn't find it cheaper than Suncoast Parts.
I also just realized that most of the 911's are Widebody cars. No need for me to state that they are GT2RS skirts as Suncoast lists them as GT2.

Ive had a set of these on my car for many years. I think they look cool. maybe they are functional? I dunno not that good a driver.
For those of us .2 non-widebody guys ... I recall a RL thread many years ago (2019 timeframe), where someone took 991 side skirts, cut the back end of them & installed a different end-cap to clean it up, ... and it fit the shape of a non-widebody 997 lower valence.

I've always wanted to figure out how to do that,.. so I could protect from stone rash, my lower painted side valence area.

​​​​​​​Anyone recall that thread?

He made a business out of it 👍
Seems the side skirts will work on the NB GT3s but the rear bumper splitters don't

Started getting an intermittent “depress clutch pedal” message when trying to start the car (and the clutch was already pushed in.) So I proactively replaced the clutch interlock switch; took 5 mins. The old one still makes a “clicking” sound as if it’s activating to close the circuit, but who knows.





I’m still chasing brake squeal at low speed with light pressure on the brake pedal. When I have the car up on the lift and rotate the wheels with my hands, I can hear the pads dragging on the PCCBs slightly and the wheel doesn’t “free spin”. Does anyone else’s 997 GT3 do that?

Oil change and removed rear tie downs (free if someone wants them).

Ryan, if I get some time tomorrow, I'll lift a side of the car and spin my wheels. I'll make a video for ya.

My two suspects are pad taper or stuck piston seals.

Not today technically, but I used the GT3 for Summit racing autocross week, and finished first in class and second overall for the whole event! My wife was driving as well, and was fourth in class!

@Auto_Werks 3.6 the color of those wheels looks incredible with the exterior paint. 👏

^^^^ AHAHAHAH!!!

As for what I've done recently.... completed an oil change and had to replace a worn-down battery after lots of little electrical gremlins start to show up.

Oh, I'm also getting ready to find a fix for the sticky radio *****...
