I think there is a limit to what Porsche can do at scale without introducing quality control issues and significant costs. There is always Porsche exclusive / special wish options to deal with that but the costs are crazy as a result.
No they wouldn't. They make more money with those things than leaving them off. Always someone that b1tches about something. How many car manufacturer's still do the ala carte options as much as Porsche does instead of the package model instituted by the Japanese and adopted by the domestics?
On the headlight washers they would run afoul of cert regulations. If you don't like it buy the base ones and then replace'em with the ones you want.
I hope I will live long enough to see ExMB one day actually agree with somebody on something. How exactly would they make less money for allowing the customer to opt out of a feature when they keep the price as if the feature is there?

Certainly makes sense if you also have the standard "chrome" Porsche lettering on the rear
Yeah, I have a Gentian Blue Spyder coming, along with the standard chrome "PORSCHE" above. I was just thinking that it might match and look good... but, can't find anyone that has tired it yet.
I see so many changing the '718 Spyder' emblem to the variations of previous generations. I actually took it back many, many generations back to what was on the 550 Spyder! Admittedly, my inspiration came from Janko Lind of the Art of Driving (on YouTube). Here's how it turned out:

I like this a lot. Details on how to get it? Price? THx
I purchased it from Sierra Madre (https://sierramadrecollection.com/pr...-models-p17818). It required just a bit of modification in removing the pins on the back side (not terribly difficult), and having it painted black. I had it done at a shop in a matte finish, but you could probably do it yourself if you were so inclined.
bought 981 version of Spyder emblem, removed original '718 spyder' emblem while whole car PPF was getting applied, but never ended up putting the emblem on, like the look of the rear without emblem, since it's barely noticeable anyway (on a black car)
