Best place to source obscure old timer 911 parts?

Post by drhildr »

RSR out of paint. Looking good but I am missing what I am going to describe as two "bungs" that blank off the two circular holes in the rear wings, forward of the rear wheels. Anybody know what they are actually called and where I can find a pair? I have images but struggling to upload....

"Normal" ones are available from your local Porsche dealer. For an RSR, not sure - imagine you might need to hand fabricate to match the profile of the flares? Or is it not flarey in that area?
Surely real RSR's would have just had a hole (weight saving)?

Yes - it would appear that the holes are left unblanked in RSR spec. Thanks for the input all.
