Rear Wing cover fitment from an 02-03 to a 99 - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

mikesz · 10-22-2014, 04:48 AM

I have recently purchased the rear bumper from an 03-04 with the factory lower diffuser. Based on research on this forum it will fit my 99. But I need the rear wing from an 03-04 also since it is wider than that of the 99. Does anyone know if the 03-04 rear wing cover will fit on the 99 rear wing frame? are there anything else I will need to attach the 03-04 wing to the 99?

This would be good to know since I too am in the market for a new rear bumper cover for my '01

Was thinking of doing the same. A Porsche part supplier told me that apart from the rear bumper, I'd need around 30 different parts (brackets, etc.) to do the switch-over to the newer style rear bumper.

Hope someone can prove them wrong.

I got a rear bumper from an 03-04, with the rear lower diffuser and rear spoiler for same. But first want to install an "S" center radiator and 911 front bumper.

. . . Stay tuned

Not to derail the thread about the rear- But, I have an 911 front bumper installed. Bolts right up. Keep in mind this is the 996 pre 2002 facelift. Am curious to see if a rear face-lifted Boxster lower/diffuser spoiler are the same too.

sorry friends no progress yet. I live in RI and winter has set in and unfortunately garage space is at a premium. My first order of business is to install an S center radiator which is going to be interesting. Once that is done it will be onto the bumper installs. Not sure if I will try to paint them myself of pay someone to do it. Cash is a little tight these days after Christmas. But I promise I will post to let you all know.

anyone know where i can find a schematic of an 03-04 boxster rear bumper with diffuser? I am looking for the aluminum trim pieces. One of mine is damaged and want to find out how much to replace it. I am looking for the schematic.

Great news!

Can you please list all the parts, including part numbers? Did you take photos (at least before and after)?

I don't have part numbers, sorry. But I bought a bumper from someone selling on this forum. it was from an 03-04. Just the bumper. Then purchased off ebay the spoiler assembly from an 03-04 boxster. basically the were parting a care out I got the motor, plastic spoiler and the steel bracket that the spoiler attaches to. I will be selling the motor assembly because I didn't need it. but that was it those 3 pieces. I had to get the bumper and spoiler painted to match my car. Pictures to come.
