4. Remove the screws from the bottom side of the bumper. Remove the sheetmetal screws 6 and spacer sleeve 7 from the retaining strips on the left and right.
before these screws can be removed, it is necessary to remove the plastic rivets from the fender liner and push the liner out of the way.

All,
Does anyone know the best way to paint my stainless steel tips and muffler bypass pipes? I want to paint then in a satin black.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Don't do it yourself. Stainless is harder to paint than other metals (also to weld and to plate.) Powedercoat should hold up and is not that expensive, a high temp appliance enamel should also do it. Professionally applied paints are catalized and or cured differently and it's a specialty thing. DIY with caution, experience, and some expensive tools.

I recommend you get a code reader and read the codes off the OBDII. If you don't have a reader,an autostore, like Autozone, lend readers to be used in their parking lot. Write down the codes if any, and we can troubleshoot
Problem Fixed. Looks like the hazard switch was bad and the posts were not making contact. Repaired the switch and voila, the controls work again.
That was weird.

My '01 steering controls are completely dead. The auto transmission is working well but when shifted into manual it remains in whatever gear it was in while in auto.
Is this a control unit, or if the control unit goes dead, does the auto mode go too?

I just wanted some knowledge of what's involved in this so the body shop doesn't tell me something that may not be entirely true and me not realizing it.
They should: remove the outer window seal, mirror, and door handle, tape off the window and adjacent panels, fill, sand, paint color coat, paint 1-2 coats clear, color sand, buff, clean reassamble.

Would they have to paint the entire door or could a small area be fixed and blended together with the existing paint? I don't know how they could get it so perfectly matched since this is in a very visible area right on the rounded top of the door.
Yes, they should paint the whole panel.
Side skirts- how do they mount?

You can purchase the Porsche Aerokit Install TSB for $2.00 I think on their web site.
They all pretty much mount the same as far as I know.
