Default 2024 Ugly Rear Skirt

I mentioned this in another thread but snapped this picture today that I think illustrates what I’m saying about the new rear skirt design looking cheap.




It looks cheap the way they cut into the painted rear bumper with the matte black plastic. It almost looks like a piece in the center broke off or was forgotten by the factory.

I also don’t love having to reach down so far to reach the rear door button.

Just my opinion: the 9Y0 design on my 2019 looks and works better.

Is there an option I could have checked off to avoid this?

The sport design package is the only way to get it painted. That’s the reason I ordered mine with it. Agree with you, going all the way up to the license plate just looks odd especially on a vehicle at this price point. Seems like something you would see on a Honda or something.

+1 for the sport design package.

I'm pretty sure you can have it painted though. Or if you wait a little you can buy the sport design rear fascia.

I personally thought I'd hate it more. It doesn't bother me all that much when I saw it in person.

I'm betting you can't see anything at night on the back up cam though. They made the same mistake in the Panny

It much more pronounced on the refresh. On the 9Y0, sport design package or the turbo was a way around it

I just reconfigured my car with the sport design package and looked at the pictures. You are correct, that totally fixes it. Oh well, too late now.

the sport design package is very aggressive with the more pronounced side skirts and front and rear bumper….how a GTS would come stock. Im not sure if its available for the ‘24, but the 9YO had an option where you can have the standard side and rear skirts painted body color. Thats how the turbo comes stock with the exception of a different front bumper. Check out member “Chassis” cayenne s as a refernce.

You only need to have SportDesign Front Fascia to get the sides and part of the rear bumper painted.

Get the bumpers painted in body colour. Any body shop can do this. It is not too late.

The 9Y0.1 is so complete and satisfying to look from rear. I must say the 9Y0.2 has better front angle but oh god what they have done to the rear 😞😞

I do love the newer front end, I must say. Looks very beefy. I wonder if the 9Y0.1 rear can swap over. hmm....

I totally agree. The front looks sporty and menacing and the rear looks like a jacked up dune buggy.

Less paint (e.g. on the .2 rear fascia) = less cost.

Another obvious corner-cutting measure by Porsche on the .2. Agree that .2 front + .1 rear would be a nice combination.
