996 aero rear side panels

I have side panels on rear bumper. I assumed that they belong to the Aero -package but do they? Most aeros that I have seen lack those panels.

I wonder if the panels really have an aerodynamic effect or are they just for looks?

There are part of the MKI aerokit, yes. They are functional. The MKII does not have them any longer.

Some people do not like them that is why you don't see them often. But they are correct.

Yes, they are rarely seen. I tried to google 996 aeros but could not find one with those flaps.

I think they might be some in this threat, start from the beginning. If nothing else, lots of fun to go through it.
