Jack stands under 997S?

[Blurrrr]

Hello Fellas,

I would like to replace the chin lip spoiler on Aero Kit 997S and was wondering if it was possible to use a floor jack under front lift point and find a place to install jackstands? Are the lift points the only place to support or lift front end?

Cheers

Sorry fellas should have done the search first-found a great thread that expained everything-have to jack back lift point and place stand under front lift point :jump:

you need stands ?!

I replaced mine last week - there is ony one plastic rivet per side, near the wheel arch that pulls out vertically downwards;

the lip then just pulls off, pulling outwards all along. Start at each side & work in to the centre.

took me about 10 mins to R&R.

I now have the black GT3 lip on a red aerokit

Thanks David,

I thought while I was at it I would replace front forward fender well.

Seems that I must have torn that little rubber flap off some how :( . That black lip

would look great on a red car.

Hi Kurt - I see now !

best way I've found to jack the car is to raise the car with a jack at the rear side lift point; the chassis is so stiff the front will come up too & you can then get a stand fitted to the front side lift point. Repeat on the other side & the front of the car is in the air.

When jacking up the car (all 4 lift points on jack stands) do you do it with the parking brake on or off?

If your on the level as you should be it doesn't matter. Slightly better to have the car in gear with the ebrake on....
