My wife came out of her work place and noticed that this was missing....

What is it called and what's the part number?

I'm so angry at the person who took it.....wtf!

Was there meant to be a photo?

Thank you so much!

Should I order it from the Porsche dealer or this is something that I can order online?

With regards to painting it to match, how should I go about getting it done?

How was it possible to remove this cover without scratching the paint around it? Or was it lost not from a thief but just plain bad luck?

More than likely, it was not stolen, but simply came loose and fell off without anyone noticing it was gone................

By the way, is this part number the right or the left side? I'm missing the one on the right side.

Thanks!

The 862 denotes the right side (even part number before version of part). 861 is for the left side.You can order the part for a good price from one of the board sponsors, Sunset Imports (Just click on "Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost" near the top of every page, on the tab to the right of center).Is your car Ocean Blue Metallic?Regards, Maurice.

Yup! It's Ocean Blue Metallic....you have the part? :)

I bought a clamshell and some associated parts from a guy who was parting out his car locally about three years ago. I'm not sure if I have an extra one of those parts and whether it's the right or left side. I have the parts stored and I can take a look this coming weekend to let you know.

Regards, Maurice.

Great! Please let me know....if you are able to find one and sell it to me, I don't have to worry about getting the color matched. :)

Hi,

Were you able to find out if you have the part?

Dog:

I couldn't find it over the weekend, but I just went in there after seeing your message and remembered I had another box of parts.

I found it and it is for the correct side that is missing from your Boxster.

Here are a couple of photos of it.... It's not perfect, it has a tiny bit of crazing on the very rear edge of the surface and it's missing a nub on the underside.

I see from your photo that you don't need the black support part, so if you want the Ocean Blue Metallic part and you want to pay for postage, I'll send it to you for free.

I think you can install it with the one nub and maybe some silicone sealant or double sided tape.

A small USPS priority mail box is $5.20, plus ?? for delivery confirmation.

PM me your name and address and I'll get it in the mail tomorrow. Again, it's not perfect, but it can hold you over until you decide whether it's worth getting another one, etc...

Regards, Maurice.
