  1. Hi Loren - that's exactly what used to find the parts. Someone had suggested the part number, I looked it up on the most current PET system, but it never correlated with a part that could be found on the picture - on the photo you included, it isn't shown on the diagram. Because it was fairly cheap, and I figured that "spoiler" was probably correct.

    Thankfully, it is a fairly inexpensive part. I chew through those lips quickly as most roads and driveways here are on very steep inclines. :(

  2. The part number that is imprinted on the part does not match the actual part number. It was very difficult to find, and it was only after a vendor did an extensive search did I find the part. I still wasn't sure it was correct until it arrived today. In fact, if you look at the online parts catalog on Porsche's website, it is not even listed in the PDF.

  3. No I had the same problem. I ordered it from sunset Porsche 138.00. You get the whole piece

    Just an update - the two part numbers I found are definitely the spoiler lip pieces needed. You do not need to order the entire wheel well cover. Cost $16 each.

  5. Just an FYI, VW part number 1J0 972 977 D will fit the plug pattern in the back of the instrument cluster on the 997...in case anyone is trying to source the repair kit and can't get one. It's design is a little different, but the plug still fits properly.

  6. AMP 2-929407-1

    999.650.508.40

    PBT-GF20

    It's sourced by Tyco.

    The plug itself is fine - it's the black latch that is broken. My only alternative is to pull a purple latch from a VW harness that looks similar.

  7. Does anyone know where to source this part:

    PNA 721 043 00 202

    It is a collection of electrical connectors for repairs - specifically, for the instrument cluster on 997 vehicles.

    It does not seem to be available anywhere in North America.

  8. I think it's only the bottom lip of the fender well which has scraped across the road. The fender well itself is okay.

    Loren, thank you for your help. For $20, the other part may be the correct one. I think I may order one side and see what arrives.

  9. Sometimes the number on the part are just sub-assembly part numbers - and Porsche does not sell sub-assemblies.

    I think what you need is:

    997-504-123-01 Left wheel housing liner -- US MSRP $160.90

    997-504-124-01 Right wheel housing liner -- US MSRP $160.90

    These were the parts I was thinking - the front left and right forward liners. I was hoping to replace just the lip, as I ruin them frequently on the street.

    Thanks for the info.

  10. Does anyone know if this part is available separately?

    Imprinted in the plastic trim are the part numbers

    997 504 503 80

    997 504 504 80

    for the driver and passenger side respectively. A parts catalog search does not identify this part. Does anyone know if it is available separately from the front well assembly?
