Missing panels under 996 front end?
Discussion
Good fun last night, running over some road kill on the way home. Everything seems to be running fine, but I did see some plastic escaping in my rear view mirror. Getting under the car today I can see two triangle pieces in front of the wheels that perhaps should be covered? Looking at the parts diagram, however, it should be open and I'm missing part 4, rubber lip? A pair of those and 6 screws to get it fixed?
Help on this much appreciated.

And item 8 mine were missing on my Boxster, they were around £8 or so each with TIPEC discount from an OPC.
Ah, that's really helpful, thanks. I'd presumed those air ducts where for the brakes, but Googling up the part number found this thread which suggests I'm missing them as you say: http://rennlist.com/forums/boxster-and-boxster-s-9...That's the cost of my accident raised! Will be pleased to get it all sorted though.

Thanks for the help so far, does anyone have experience fitting these bits? Part 4 sceews straight on, but 8 is tricky - it shares the innermost screw with 4? Is it then bolted on at the other end? I can't get it to fit whilst 4 is there.
With 4 screwed in:

You can see the gap between the wheel arch lip and the brake duct that presumably should be filled with part 8, but how?? Here they are, waiting:

Thanks
