I don't think the standard 993 wings are the same as the 993TT.
I know this because I'm changing the little front quarter pieces just behind the front wheels, (due to stone chipping)- just in front of the side skirts. They're different.
The front panel- or more precisely- front bumper is also a different part number to the stock 993.
Sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear...

Marquis, I have the same problem with a 993. Can i ask what kind of £££ have you been quoted for the job?, or are you do it yourself?

Hi, Well I bought the parts for around £10 per side plus the dreaded (the old pieces are rusting would you believe?). In terms of fitting, I've taken the old ones off before so it's not difficult. I'm not doing it myself as they have to sprayed and blended in, and I might as well get rid of some stone chips while I'm at it. I don't imagine the labour for /dismantling/fitting would be much, as I've done it myself before- just the paint and sundries. I haven't had a quote for the spray work yet- (I'm being careful as to who I pick for the work to be done) but I will- I'm in no hurry- at least I have the parts now!
Alot of parts places will try to convince you that you will need to change the whole wing, or that the part isn't availiable- or they won't know what you're talking about. You CAN get the bit and it does exist!

Halls The rear bumper is definately a Turbo/Turbo look/C4S only part as it has to fit over those widened arches I'm afraid....
