If it is a painted black plastic trim piece, it's a non-issue for wax residue. It's when the black plastic trim pieces are non-painted (raw) that the wax gets caught-up in the texture of the surface. I suspect the GTS engine vents are painted black, but not sure.

I'm actually thinking about adding the Techart diffuser as pictured below, I think it will look great with my Aerokit car in Sapphire Blue...

Buy the GT3 and you get a similar wing for "free".

Anyway to get the wax out of those raw black trim? I have those "wax stain" around the engine lid area.

Haha, you make it sound like a bargain.

Was actually thinking about the Techart lower diffuser piece and not the wing though...

Try Wurth Citrus Degreaser. Small soft brush. Rinse. Follow with Aerospace 303 or Black WOW.

I'm a traditional 911 lines type of guy, but out of curiosity, how would the Techart lower diffuser improve the 991 aerokit cup with ducktail spoiler and additional wing?

Well, let's face it. That's not a real diffuser anyways. It's all show, no go. NTTAWWT.

Exactly, i think it looks nice and is unique. I like my cars to have some subtle mods to set it apart but I'm also not crazy like this guy.

Thanks, but I doubt we have those in Hong Kong. I would get them when I am back to CA.
