I was poking around eBay Germany for bits and pieces and came across a company named Teilecar that is selling what appears to be newly manufactured 931 front Valence / Badge Panels. They appear to be made out of FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic). They aren't cheap at 300 Euro ($432.26 USD at today's exchange rate) but if you really have the jones for one and can't find the real deal it may be worth it.

Their corporate website is here:

The page for the panel is here:

That's made out of fiberglass.

So is this one by GT Racing (for $295):

Has anyone ever found a source for replacement vent inserts? Thay seems to be the rub with the GT Racing piece. Last time I tried to find a few vent pieces on eBay the seller thought they were made of gold....lol.

do they fit the 944?

They are rarer than gold so expect to pay $$$'s. I have two perfect sets and thought about reproducing them out of billet and powder coating them until I got an estimate. The originals are made of plastic and most I have seem have deteriorated due to where they are located. If someone here has cnc capabilities and wants to attempt to "billet up" my spare set shoot me a pm.

I try to pick up an extra one or two when I can find them. Having a billet replacement set would be fantastic however. No more worries about warping or cracking due to the age of the plastic.

Hi MagK I'll send you a PM but we would be interested looking at Billet vents we can anodize in house various colors.

Got it, Pm'ed back so you have my email address. Let's get these done.

Olli Snellman

That's Mareks's company in Poland. We have bought some glassfibre items from him. Quality is quite OK.
I have a source for vent inserts. One guy is making repro ones. quality is very good.

Sounds like Olli has this covered, we'll still look into some billet options. Do you any of you still have interst in Billet vents with a resaonably priced plastic option being available?

Billet version can be made, but i won't be cheap.

Would billet would necessary? I think plastic is fine in my opinion...
