Having a hard time trying to find used apron plastic covers that go under the car
Looking for some used plastic underneath pieces for my 2001 Boxster S and can’t seem to find any. Mine only have one bolt hole that’s torn but they connect to other pieces so I need to replace them
Just trying to not have to buy new. Front left fender well apron 996 504 203 06 And the long piece that goes across the car in front of the rear wheels 986 504 119 00 And also the rear left cover in front of the wheel 986 504 571 01 Thanks |
Buy new ones, they are cheap. used ones shipping will be more. new you can get free shipping.

Side note, I like your electric cars. I used to have Focus electric, and now a Fusion Energi. Also had a 500L and it was a fun car. Waited in line years ago for 2hrs for the 35k Model 3 reservation that came out at 50k and never got it. Now waiting for my Cybertruck. Having solar helps a ton. |

Not justified investment in MI... As for EVs - Boxster seems slow, at least up to 50 mph, which I got as a toy car. |
I just did these on mine. Didn't do the wheel wells yet but the front, long center piece & engine cover were cheap. Just saying that finding a used one in perfect condition isn't going to be easy. These all break at one point. If only 1 hole is broken I dont think it's worth it but that is just my opinion. Used ones I have seen cheap but then shipping being almost the same price as new.
996 504 203 06 - $159 986-504-119-00 - $133 986 504 571 01 - $17.40 |
You could always cover the broken bolt hole with a large black plastic washer and still fasten the piece to another piece with a bolt. I've done this on the rear mud guards of my Cayman. Those pieces snap off easily.
Just sayin'......... TO |
The Porsche dealer in Vegas is selling them pretty cheap, but shipping is $200. My dealer here said he'd price match but also had to add whatever shipping cost they had. I'm thinking Pelican may be the best bet.
If I could find used in Phoenix, I could take a short drive there over the weekend. And the rear may be ok with the one hole gone but the front fender well has two holes. We'll see. Quote:

Shop other dealers, you can get all of those with little or no shipping. I got mine from the dealer in Silver Springs and didn't pay any shipping.

That may work for the rear apron, but the front has a bigger crack and covers two holes.
Thanks for the idea :) Quote:

I had the same problem finding used replacements. One recycler I spoke with told me that most yards use forklifts to move the cars around and these bottom panels get broken in the process.
I ended up buying new ones from Pelican, but included them with some other parts to qualify for free freight. |

I have a Polyvance plastic welding kit and have repaired plenty of these cracked panels and a few bumpers.
Take a look at this: https://www.polyvance.com/video/airless-plastic-welding/how-to-secure-a-broken-fog-light-mounting-boss-2 You can use the basic concepts shown with a cheap soldering iron and scrap of similar plastic. |
