Product Information
Product Information
Rear engine lid, ALUMINIUM
This OE Match aluminium rear engine lid is manufactured to replicate the original Porsche design while offering the benefits of lightweight construction. Based on the same design as the steel version (91151201000), it ensures precise fitment with factory hinges, latch mechanisms, and grille components.

Fits:
Porsche 911 F model 1969-73

Constructed from high-quality aluminium, this panel maintains correct contours and mounting points, ensuring seamless integration with original parts.

Aluminium engine lids were used on certain performance-focused Porsche models to reduce weight, particularly at the rear of the vehicle, improving handling balance and responsiveness. This OE Match version is ideal for both restoration and performance-oriented builds.

The engine lid protects the engine compartment while allowing airflow through the grille for cooling. The aluminium construction reduces rear-end weight, improving overall vehicle dynamics and responsiveness.

Function
Covers and protects the engine compartment
•  Allows airflow for engine cooling
•  Reduces overall vehicle weight compared to steel
•  Improves handling and weight distribution
•  Maintains original factory styling

Original steel lids may suffer from corrosion, damage, or incorrect replacements over time. Upgrading to an aluminium version offers both restoration accuracy (for certain models) and performance improvements through weight reduction.

This is especially beneficial for enthusiasts aiming to replicate period-correct lightweight builds or improve driving dynamics.

When to replace
  Rust or corrosion on original steel lid
  Accident or structural damage
  Poor panel alignment or fitment
  Weight reduction for performance builds
  During restoration or upgrade projects
