DIY 993 Air Deflectors / Brake Scoops
Yes, I know you can purchase these from our host for about $30 delivered. Yes, I know you can purchase these from your local dealer for about $40.
993-341-083-00-OEM The OEM pieces are made from a semi-firm rubber and have a single attachment tab on the back side for mounting to the 993 control arms. When I asked the local speed shop if they had any take-offs, they simply replied that they are always looking for replacements, because the always get torn off. So, if you're going to have to wait a week for delivery, might as well see what's free... Here's a template if you would like to make your own. These are made from thick truck mud flaps, about 5/32" thick. Got 'em for free. Template can be blown up until you have correct measurement on ruler. I have attached them with 1" hose clamps along the diagonal brace. In the last photo, you can see how they bend after that towards the hub. ![]() ![]() ![]()

The trick is getting the free truck mud flaps, otherwise you're spending 40 bucks for them.

this will also divert water/rain and obviously dirt DIRECTLY onto the disc.... dunno if this is so good... a dustshield with hose adaptor leading to a front intake that doesn't collect dirt would be better... no?
