Default Key Fob Color Update

The chrome on my key fob was pretty beat up so I went on ebay to see if I could replace it. Thought it would be interesting to replace with white which is the color of my car. Found a kit on ebay for $11 that not only had the chrome replacement but also the side pieces. Replaced them as well. I kind of like the look. Thinking about converting the other key to white as well.

Did the same thing with mine. Choose yellow to match the PCCB's. Bought my car used with a badly worn key. Porsche key is mine, nothing else. I wish i could afford a Ferrari...

I think Porsche makes them too and they cost $119. I guess they are the same. Both plastic.

Porsche only makes the side pieces. The chrome bezel surrounding my original fob was beat up and that's why i choose the ebay piece instead

Please post the link. There are many different ones on ebay and I'm sure some of them, if not most, are not good.

Exactly, same reason I was looking...this is better than the factory version. I like it so much I am buying one for my second key. The seller was https://www.ebay.com/usr/kwotop2014?...p2047675.l2559
