Some mischievous kid or petty thief decided to rip off (literally) the rear plate off my 996.2, including the plastic bracket underneath it, and the clips / screws or whatever attached it to the bumper.

What's left are 4 squarish holes on the bumper, only 2 appears to have been used, to mount the plastic bracket. (See the attached photo of the silver 996.) I have a spare plastic plate bracket but can't figure out the parts I'm missing to put it back on the car even scrounging through multiple 986 / 996 parts catalogues. Please help!

What's even more baffling is the setup and holes are completely different on a 996TT (see the attached photo of the white)!

 

Are you sure it wasn't a wayward moose? I thought all the Canadians were good folk.

 

in case your still looking:
Pelican Parts has the square plastic nuts for this application. #999-591-498-40-m100. A Porsche product. My guess is you can get them elsewhere too.
