Porsche supply a length of it as part number 999.613.017.40 but it is just the PVC sleeving already mentioned.

Thanks for the update Dougal.

Any news on 205/55 & 225/50 for 16" 911 wheels?

HI Chevy thanks for all the history file you've provided, it's really appreciated. Do you have any more photo's from the time of your ownership ? I'm trying to find out if the tail is original as it doesn't have a front skirt & did it have fogs, front & or rear ? It has a fog pull switch on...
