I need to clean, polish and paint the rear wing intercooler air intakes on my 996tt
How do they come off.

My understanding is they are held in place with spring clips. IOWs, you just pull the thing out.

But I may be wrong. I've never had mine out myself but I did see them out when I had the car in for some repairs after hitting a deer.

Check that. I just remembered I had a pic of the vent with the grill removed and there appears to be at least one fastener -- based on the presence of a metal tab with what appears to be a screw hole in it -- about half way down the front edge of the vent.

Sincerely,

Rockster.
