- Porsche Boxster S 986 3.2L 1999–02

Diagram Ref No 10
Check fitment for your specific vehicle (model, year, engine) before ordering.
Required Quantity
The 986 Boxster side-section air-inlet installation requires 2 gaskets.
What Is This Part?
This gasket forms the sealing interface where the air inlet meets the surrounding side-section bodywork. It sits between the mating surfaces and needs to remain intact and evenly seated when the inlet is installed. Its condition is particularly relevant during inlet removal, side-section repairs or bodywork refurbishment, when an existing gasket may be disturbed. Before reassembly, check that the gasket follows the joint without folds, tears or displaced sections.
What Does This Part Do?
- Seals the inlet joint: Closes the interface between the air inlet and its mating surface in the side-section assembly.
- Maintains contact around the joint: Provides a continuous sealing interface when correctly positioned and seated.
- Supports correct reassembly: Replaces a damaged or deteriorated sealing interface when the inlet is refitted after bodywork repairs.
Why Replace This Part?
A split, distorted or permanently flattened gasket may no longer contact its mating surfaces evenly. Missing sections or folds can leave gaps at the joint, even when the inlet itself is correctly positioned. Removal can also damage an otherwise serviceable gasket if it sticks to the surrounding parts or is pulled out of shape.
Inspect the gasket whenever the inlet is disturbed, rather than assuming that removal alone makes replacement necessary. Renew it if it cannot be refitted intact and seated evenly. Check the inlet, surrounding bodywork and retaining hardware at the same time: poor alignment or loose fittings should be corrected rather than relying on a new gasket to compensate.
When to Replace This Part?
- Visible damage: Tears, splits or missing sections interrupt the sealing surface.
- Permanent deformation: Flattened, folded or distorted areas prevent the gasket from sitting evenly.
- Poor seating: Gaps remain at the joint after the inlet and its mating surfaces have been checked for correct alignment.
- Removal damage: The gasket tears, stretches out of shape or loses sections during inlet removal or side-section repair.
Where Is This Part Fitted?
Location: At the air inlet joint within the rear side-section bodywork assembly of the Porsche 986 Boxster, between the inlet and its mating surface.

Diagram Ref No 11
Although commonly described as splash guards, these components should not be confused with the larger plastic wheel-arch liners normally fitted directly around the tyres.
Porsche parts catalogues position these components within the outer side-body and rear-quarter structure and describe them as:
Water protection
and, in later specialist catalogues:
Drain valve / forced ventilation trim.
Their role is to help protect the body ventilation and drainage area from direct water spray, dirt and road contamination while allowing the vehicle's intended body-cavity ventilation and drainage arrangement to function correctly.
The left and right guards sit within the side-body structure close to the rear quarter and sill area, where they help reduce the amount of spray and debris entering sensitive body cavities.
Over time, the original components can become cracked, brittle, distorted, loose or lost during body repairs. A damaged or missing guard can leave the surrounding cavity more exposed to water, mud and debris and may interfere with the intended drainage or forced-ventilation arrangement.
Replacing deteriorated guards helps restore the original Porsche body protection and ventilation configuration.
What This Product Does:
The Splash Guard / Water Protection component forms part of the Porsche 997 rear side-body protection and ventilation system.
Its main functions are to:
- Help shield the rear side-body cavity from water spray.
- Help prevent road dirt and debris entering the protected area.
- Protect the forced-ventilation opening.
- Support the intended body-cavity ventilation arrangement.
- Work alongside the sill water-drain system.
- Help direct moisture away from internal body sections.
- Reduce direct exposure of body cavities to road contamination.
- Restore the correct factory arrangement after body repair.
- Replace cracked, missing or distorted original guards.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Typical symptoms or inspection findings include:
- Guard completely missing.
- Cracked plastic.
- Split edges.
- Broken mounting points.
- Distorted shape.
- Guard sitting loose.
- Rattling from the side-body area.
- Road debris accumulating around the ventilation opening.
- Increased dirt inside the rear side cavity.
- Water staining around the surrounding bodywork.
- Dampness within the associated cavity.
- Previous accident or body repair leaving the guard incorrectly fitted.
- Damaged clips or fixings.
- Guard no longer sitting flush.
Why Replacement Matters:
Replacing a damaged or missing Splash Guard helps restore:
- Correct water protection.
- Protection of the forced-ventilation area.
- Reduced dirt and debris intrusion.
- Proper body drainage arrangement.
- Original body-cavity configuration.
- Secure trim installation.
- Factory-standard appearance and function.
