Everything is possible provided that Porsche will sell the parts.
I only need the bar and I'm collecting addresses of shops in Germany from helpful Rennlisters that maybe even can park their CS equipped car next to mine for an exact duplicate installation of the bar.

If a harness bar exists that would even work fine for the few m on this of track events in Europe. But I rather have the CS installed (twice)

If you are fabricating check out these guys they are near Bremen in the Northeast

If just a harness bar Agency Power might be the easiest to ship and install as it breaks down into a bunch of smaller pieces and easy to bolt it and remove

I wouldn't say white doesn't look good in person—it just didn't look good to me in person (and I loved it in the RS dealer brochure). There were several people who said they'd take the car in white.

I'm pretty low-key, as well, but there's contrarian logic at work here. White amplifies all of the black bits on the cars, the front fender outlets and rear fender inlets in particular, and really highlights the car's size, which isn't small. UV tones down all of the black elements without losing them, somehow manages to tone down the rear wing, and actually feels like a very tasteful/subtle color if you can get past the fact it is, after all, purple. But that only heightens its appeal for me. It is unexpected but nowhere near as "BAM!" as the bright orange, greens, or blues. In overcast, it's almost just a really nice dark blue, but then you see the highlights and it is definitely purple—but a beautiful purple. If you like Aubergine 911s, you'll love UV, and I think it's a 1970s color that makes the leap to a big car better than any I've seen so far. Personally, I'd have UV with silver wheels and plain silver headlights over every other setup. It was stunning, without being garish.

Of course, YMMV—I can think of few areas more subjective than color choice. Then again, some colors occasionally work with a given object better for varying reasons. But then you get back to the viewer…

Can someone with a CS ROW 991 please post pictures of how the roll bar installs exactly?
I know cut carpet and weld plates but does the plastic need to be cut or not?

If you know the right people at PCNA, they can get one for you.

I know of at least one person who was able to get the ROW CS package for the 991 911 GT3 here in the U.S. doing it that way.

But whether your car will have the ROW mounting points for the CS rollbar is anyone's guess.

It may not. You may need to do some interior/exterior mods to get get the bolt in points right. And at the end of the day, it might be easier (and safer) to use a US fabricated aftermarket cage/harness setup.

Otherwise, you may end up with a fancy OEM "Jungle Gym" for your kids to play in ...

Yeah, Im thinking either a CS bar or an exact copy or just a harness bar..
And ideally installed and uninstalled again in Germany for export.

Located CS bar.

Trying to identify the exact changes in seats and subs trap bar under seat install challenges between normal cars and U.S. cars and asked Manthey to look into installation.

Even with a Harness bar the labor will be less but same challenges remain.
