Haven't seen any pics, but you could make some with some fiberboard and vinyl for about $20 and a weekend's worth of time.

I've been thinking about this too.

Just take the arm rests and pockets off the stock door panel and recover them with fresh vinyl or alcantara and a nylon pull tab.

I know this has been done before by a few people. I'll see if I can find them...

Chad made some CF door panels for his RS3, but I forget if he included RS pull handles or if he just used regular 944 handles.

Thanks for the info Patrick. I prefer the "do it myself " type projects - sometimes. BTW - my new splitter is still in one piece. Made it off the trailer... around Auto Club Speedway for 2 days and back on the trailer without incident.

Not without reshaping the door metal. The panel has to come out due to the door design.

These are on sale on Ebay in the UK.

Nice for those Carbon fiber fetishists out there?
