Stone Guards
I have full PPF but my car has gotten hammered with road debris and the like. The paint is still fine but the PPF has noticeable marks/nicks on it so I got some new stone guards since this area is the worst. I don't think the pics do them justice but I really like them. Still need to adjust exactly how they sit but well pleased with them. Thoughts?

Some like the look and that’s fine if you do.
I plan to just redo the PPF when needed on mine.
as for placement. They look pretty good. Something jumps out to me as needing to be slightly higher, but that might be my familiarity with how the turbos look.

I like these a lot on this car, and think the placement looks good.
for a while I didn’t like these on 991’s, and couldn’t figure out why, and noticed on air cooled 911’s the bottom edge of the guard merges w a nice thick horizontal black trim line (almost making a shark fin on the waterline thing!), this obvious line doesn’t exist on modern Porsche’s, so makes the guard “float” in a very different way. But on yours you hug that horizontal crease and that looks right.
also I think black on silver is a little more subtle than some colors would look, so that might help a bit too.

On my Carrera T, after only 3 months the stock clear film is pretty beat up thanks to the crumbling infrastructure of the Northeast USA. I may give these a try. With a black car they shouldn't look too bad.
Question - do the magnetic ones cover more surface area than the stock clear guards/film? To my eye they do and that would be desirable.
