Default eBay Porsche Dummy Keys Review

Since OEM was kinda expensive for what it is,I figure to try out eBay painted dummy key which only cost $17.43.
I bought red color as my exterior Chalk was not 'fun' enough so exact color matching was not my main concern as long as it's good red color.
Guess what, it was actually pretty damn good. color was bright red and super shinny. So if anyone wants to add red dummy key, I highly recommend it (they also have white).




Title says it's for Macan but it fits on all 991 models:

And DIY took only 2 mins:

I bought mine about 2 months ago. I think it looks great. A great bang for the buck. No one would ever know it was not OEM.

Seriously though it does look like a good quality piece.

Someone should cut one of these open and see if there are any surprises inside.
