Default 2011 Turbo S - underbody

Hi
I was wondering if one of the other owners of a 2011 Turbo S can tell me what trays are under their car. I have owned several 997 911s and I have always seen the entire underbody covered from front to rear.

I bought my car from the first owner and there is no tray under the front trunk. The car needed other cosmetics so I took it to Porsche and they said all the trays for the car are on there but I can see the bottom of the trunk. I am worried about aero under the car and damage potential.

Can someone tell me if they have a panel undertray under the trunk of the Turbo S. I think the part number is 997-504-527-01?

Thanks and happy Porsche'ing

I am with you....The front should be covered. As you get back to the engine, it is supposed to be open, but not the front.

Good luck,
DC

Thanks. Makes sense to not have under engine cover. I was thinking there's a lot of heat on the exhausts....550HP (custom exhaust). As I understand, on the PDK car the rear is covered to just the gear box.

Default 190

Maybe at MORPCA at Indy I'll get the opportunity
What does the chihuaha look like with his head out the window at 190?

Funny you should ask. I just received this picture from the Local Authorities...
Today, my HotRod "LugNut II" decided to take my DD out for a cruise... A 128 MPH cruise in a 25 MPH Speed Zone.

Not to mention my Glock 40, Credit Cards and a bottle of Jack is missing...where did I go wrong??? I have no idea who's riding shotgun...
Do yourself a favor, rescue a cat or hamster instead...
The Chihuahua Breed is cunning and fearless, don't let their small size fool you...
Be afraid Southern Maryland, be very afraid...JB
