Bumper Covers

[RotorHead]

I'm thinking about purchasing these covers for my '99 996 C2 Cab. Problem is, I can't seem to confirm the part number. Please help if you can.

Thanks!

Those are subassembly numbers generally not listed outside of Porsche.

Do you have pics of the complete bumper covers.

Loren,

Thanks for the quick response. Unfortunately, the covers are in Boston and I'm in Olympia, WA. The seller states the items are OEM and I'm simply trying to "trust but verify." I've asked for photos of the part numbers and what you see is the result. Otherwise, they appear to be in great shape and off a car w/less than 30K miles. Any way to cross the sub-assembly P/Ns?

I don't have a way to cross the sub-assembly. Maybe a dealer could by checking the numbers on their stock.

Did the seller say what year/model car they came off of?

Loren,

I should have posted the pictures of the bumper covers earlier (see edited earlier post). Is it reasonable to assume that if there are sub-assy part numbers then the equipment is OEM?

The seller says they are off a '99 996.

i think this is OEM and should fit your car given it's a MK1 996 bumper.

[Loren]

I agree they look like an OEM Mk1 bumper.

Ok...thanks for the feedback.

I see the Porsche logo in both pictures. Triangle with a P inside.

What's wrong with yours?

Juniinc,

I had a 17 year-old back into my 996 in a parking lot (no internal damage). So, I'm having both sprayed for the same cost as just the rear from Porsche. The dealer wants nearly $900 for just the rear bumper cover.
