John, have you thought about making some of these up and selling them through Rennlist? A sure fire seller I'm convinced! Brian.

Yes , I do this as a hobby to fund my Porsche addiction
It is a good way to give back to Rennlist, I try to offer up items without charging an arm and a leg.

I have been selling 3D printed phone holders for 964's ,993's, 944's and have just created one for a 996/boxster.
See my other Threadhttps://rennlist.com/forums/964-foru...ree-stuff.html


Also created some replacement CCU buttons for 993 owners. Apperently they have an issue with them breaking off.



Most of this has been through word of mouth here on Rennlist.
I would have to become a sponsor to advertise here on Rennlist and my sales are just not that big enough for me to go that route.
I have already had one Rennlister request the insert for the split gril and am printing some up.

I sent w factory decklid to someone to build a r-gruppe inspired grille, but they said it really couldn't be done in a way that would conducive to selling. Decklids would have to be mailed back and forth. The factory grille is bonded vs all earlier cars. If you've figured out a way around that I'd be in for a grille

Yes my solution is just the center insert and simulates the split grill look. Would take about 5 minutes to install or reverse if you wanted to go back to orginal if you were selling your car.
(But none of us would really sell a 964 once we got one )

Would be happy to sell you one , just PM me and I will get your information.

I got 2 blk 964's so black legs not a problem. I will just paint the whole thing in black. Black is so easy to paint and match. Any old gloss black should do the trick. I am def interested in one to start. Let me know if available. I bet you sell a bunch of these. Well done sir!

You should make a cover for rear wiper button for people that remove their rear wiper.

That really is a great piece of work especially on a cab or speedster. Always like the split grill on the 993 C2. I think you have a winner there.

A button for the rear wiper would be very easy and cheap to print. If you can get me the diameter of the hole and a picture I will design one .
