New Boxster Spoiler?…Anyone Tried It?

[Homeboy981]

Here is an article I found about getting a HOT NEW SPOILER from a Cayman to a newer 987 Boxster, will this work for us 986s as well? Anyone try this? Can any of you technical folks see why this would not work? Are the "posts" on the spoiler the SAME DISTANCE APART?

For anyone interested, here is the instruction to swap the Boxster spoiler assembly for the Cayman one.

This is direction to swap your 987.1 Boxster spoiler to 987.1 Cayman spoiler. The swap is relatively straight forward. It took me about 30 minutes (with pictures taking) and can be easily done with a small drill bit (don’t’ worry, it’s not for drilling), a torx bit and 13mm socket.

Parts needed:
Cayman spoiler (lower): 987 504 623 00
Cayman spoiler (upper): 987 504 619 00
Oval HD screw (Qty: 7): 999 919 233 07

Here is what the picture of the plastic rivets pulled part, and the bag of oval HD
screws. Note how the expanding plastic rivets work – center plastic pin goes in middle and that “fans” the rivet itself.
