Hi guys, I noticed the exact same thing on the rear arches of my mates 996 C2. When we did some research we found an article stating that no further liners were added as engineers designed it this way as heat from the silencers would warm the tires and provide necessary grip at the rear. I really don't know if this is true or a retrospective justification, but sounds plausible enough. In any way it looks exactly the same as my mate's C2 so wouldn't worry. Enjoy the car. Sounds like a nice spec. John.
