Carbon Fiber for GT3?
I just saw a black GT3RS with carbon fiber hood, roof, mirrors and wing. I loved it.
I have a black GT3 coming in. Is it possible to purchase a Porsche made carbon fiber hood and wing to replace the current ones? Would this impact (harm, help, or neither)- the resale value?
if Porsche doesn’t sell them- what are the after market alternatives and their impact on resale too?
thx in advance!

Wow those prices are much more reasonable. Got a quote from Techart $10k for lip, airblade, rear diffuser and tailpipe kit.

Isn't it amazing though how much we love carbon fiber?
I want an unpainted clear coat carbon fiber GT2 hood with the scoops for my lowly .1 GT3 but I'd also like to have that half year of tuition for USC saved up for my daughter also even though she's only 14. Lol.
Thanks for the Instagram link brother. Those guys have some cool stuff!
Who wants to start a carbon fiber business with me and create all of these parts for half the prices we see out there?
I can't imagine the manufacturing costs are half of what these guys charge. It must be marked up 1000% or something. Some broke defense industry company out there must have a spare huge autoclave sitting around out back they can't get rid of.
Hell, I love carbon fiber so much I'd eat my morning cereal out a carbon fiber bowl with a carbon fiber spoon if I could. Ha ha

I literally just traded in my GT3 for an RS with WP. On the resale value the dealership did not care on the upgrades at all and valued the GT3 on market demand and mileage. In either private sale or trade in, you will have buyers that love those items or immediately look away. Overall I think you should just enjoy the car and the upgrades you do to it. Lets face it that this is a depreciating asset, upgrades or no upgrades it always depends on the buyer.
The links below is my album and the other is my old GT3 being sold from the dealer.

update:
Vin #4339 was an early production 808Weissach GT3RS (7/18 completion)
it was produced/delivered with a painted hood and replaced with the exposed carbon fiber hood under recall/warranty in 2019 for free. The only reason the dealer would have this (and be able to sell it) is if they took the car on trade and owned It/had it listed when the exposed cf hood became available. Otherwise it would be the property of the Original car owner.
