Thank you very much for your time in writing this How to guide. I too have searched google for split rim repairs and had very little joy. I new it wasn't going to be a hard job, just time consuming. This is just the info I needed to give me the confidence to tackle this job.

Thanks.................Adam

Hi,

I am after just one alloy wheel as above:- must be 18" x 10" replica or genuine.

It is for a 996 rear alloy wheels which runs 285/30/18 rubber. It is 5 spoke with the square slots cut out of it has they join the rim. If anyone has one knocking about (in the UK) please PM me. thanks for looking.

Hi Berny,

Have you seen the stuff that Misha do Misha911.com, I'm considering a GT2M rear wing for my '99 C2 and you never know they might be able to do something with the postage (I'm located on the Wirral).

Gotcha,

It looks similar to the one I did then. I used 1 1/2" pvc threaded nipple and cap. Painted the cap black and it looks like it "belongs", with the ridges almost lining up to the airbox ridges . Also, a 2" rubber gasket on the outside seals it perfectly.

Call me stupid but I don't get it ? I had a look at this job today as I was cleaning my throttle body/butterfly. Is the idea to remove the air box muffler completely. Because my air intake which connects up between the MAF and throttle body, also has a bypass pipe that goes to this muffler box. Can I not just remove the muffler box put some kind fitting though the box lid then put a plastic cover over it slip over the bypass pipe and clamp up. Or am I mising the idea here ?

The picture shows a red connecting pipe with no bypass pipe. PS I have a 98 3.4.
