Sideskirt question

Just a quick question: Will painted side skirts from an 02+ 996 narrow body fit on a wide body?

I have a C4S and have the unpainted black ones. One of the retaining clips broke and I was thinking of just replacing them with painted ones from a NB. Would this work, are there any differences? Thanks in advance.

hmmm thats a new one. My guess would be a no. Maybe you can go to a dealer who has them on stock and see if it fits or not.

I don't think side skirts are interchangeable between NB and WB.

Oh well. Thanks for the quick replies. I was considering these...

Just out of curiosity, how do the NB and WB differ in terms of dimensions on the sideskirts?

get the TechArt side skirts for your car! the authentic ones run you about 1800/set, i have replica ones on my car and they work fine and costs a fraction. i have an extra set if you're interested. shot me an email: jason.h.lu@gmail.com

and just for your information, the GT2 side skirts are the same as the 4S side skirts.. so no point in buying those!

I have brand new never used TECHART side skirts if youre interested. Part number is
096.100.340.107 Made in Germany. Maybe you can ask CEC or someone else if they will fit your car.

thanks for the offer...if I change to the Techart sideskirts, I'll have to go all out with the front and wing also--I don't think I'm ready for that. I guess I'll just look for some OEM ones.

p.s. your ride looks sick
