I think this is very impressive. Someone asks "what's this random piece of rubber?" and people actually know. . .
Wow.

Thanks Spinnaker. IIRC, each piece has two grommets to attach it to the pan 999 507 774 40 and 999 507 775 40.

You don't spend much time under your Boxster do you?

Lol!

No, can't say that I do.

A couple of months after purchase, I took it back to the dealer and talked them into putting it on the lift so I could at least get a glimpse of my engine . . .

They said I wouldn't see much, and boy, where they right!

Is it a hard job to fix if I was to do it on my own?

Haven't done it myself, but the catalog describes the two fasteners as push buttons. Sounds like they attach like the fender liners. If so, then it should be easy to replace so long as you raise the back of the car safely to gain access.

The hardest part will be jacking up the car and putting it on stands.
