Thumbs up Euro clear side marker LEDs installed.

Looks a lot better than the old ones. Got these from bumperplugs.com, am waiting on the body color rear reflectors and satin black rear emblems (tried the plastidip route, but didn't work out well for me).

Looks great. Thanks for the pictures.

How will you reposition the satin black rear emblems in the exact proper position?

I'm surprise Bumperplugs has those clear LED amber lights. Sunset and Suncoast have a 3 week back order. .

Good question, sir. Currently I have the PORSCHE on back plastidipped, I debadged the "911 turbo" and I like how clean it looks. One of the weaker points visually of the car OEM IMHO is how busy the rear looks, so I'm probably just going to reposition/center the "PORSCHE" when I get the satin black lettering and leave it like that. Not decided yet, though.

Ajag, did you see this, too? Less than half of Bumperplugs price. I wonder what the difference is. Eric at Bumperplugs has great stuff, though.

On the bumperplugs site it says the LED side markers are for 2014+, but I'm assuming they would work on a 2013 991 too, correct? I like the look!

I think it's because Eric orders the OEM parts and paints them, for some reason the OEM chrome PORSCHE logo costs 3x what the flat black GT3 PORSCHE logo does, I'm going to see if I can cancel my order and just get the flat black logo. I don't really care to put the "911 turbo" back on there anyway.

I'm sure they'd work, but I'd probably email suncoast or eric @ bumperplugs to make sure.

I'd say yes. You can PM Eric here too.

For the life of me, I can't understand why anyone thinks they look better than stock. Don't look worse. Just don't really matter IMHO.

Only part of the car that's amber. Clears offer a cleaner look.

It makes a difference. It's not aftermarket btw, it's OEM euro.

Looks awesome.


I saw a new Turbo today and it has the 4 running lamp headlamps that are on the new Cayenne and Panny.

They look great and I want to upgrade mine now!!

Just shipped stock units this morning, more available anytime.

Thanks.
