My solution below (your eyes aren't deceiving you - folded cardboard, wrapped in clear tape for waterproofing, affixed with double-sided tape). Works perfectly up to 155 mph. May do something which fits the aesthetic of the car better at some point, but for now it's a reminder that, while the car is great, it's not perfect, so the car needs an eye kept on it. Really pathetic that Porsche didn't fix this issue themselves.

Wow Manifold quite surprised you let your hair down on that , that's great !
So casually functional and yes P really shouldn't make us fiddle diddle around with such a obvious
correctable short coming . We're still the lucky ones

Good for lots of laughs at the track too. People routinely ask me how much that option cost, and I tell them $1200 (cuz of the faux cardboard, extensive wind tunnel testing, etc.).

Anybody bought/experienced the ones Fabspeed selling on their website??
Seems expensive compared to your solutions though...

Installed my AWE Foilers today. I didn't need to dremel any parts and they went on pretty well. The driver side looks like it fits better than any of the other shots i've seen on here, the bottom sits flush with the sill.
The passenger side fits like everyone elses.
Mike/AWE, can you give any advice on how I can fix the passenger side to sit flush?

Did mine today, same color.
Dremaled both to smooth out but right side needed to have slot for upper clip elongated and bottom needed to be dremaled where the point contacted the rubber. Much better but right side took 4 times the left as it fit well. Need to go back to right side once more as still need to remove a little more at the bottom point.
Manufacturing is not very good at all.
