Diffuser and duckbill installed

Awesome products. any chance these maybe available in black plastic? i would love for side skirts and diffuser to look like stock black mate plastic. Like the stock rear diffuser and like the front sport lip. It would all tie in nicely.
but that's just me....

A can or two of “SEM Trim Black” will get you there

+1 on this! I’m 100% buying in plastic, on the fence with the CF.

how abou reasonable priced 200 cell sport cats OR sport cat headers for the 991.1 ? I know there are great products for 5K but it seems like for about 2K sale price with some re-engineering you could still make 100% profit.

@Rennline

How about a retrofit Front Axle Lift system for 991.1 ?
I believe it's doable especially if the car was factory equipped with PDCC (hydraulic system in place) which in turn should put it in a much lower price bracket than similar systems available currently in the market.

Sadly, it's unlikely we will come out with a GTS style rear decklid for the 991. In order to manufacture one to the quality you guys know us for would result in a retail price more than the OEM part for it to make any sense to sell. Each individual slat and the base piece would need to be molded separately which means we would have to make a ton of different molds as each slat is slightly different from one another. You can see how the manufacturing cost would get out of hand quite easily!

An aftermarket carbon lip that is compatible with Aero Front bumper would be awesome as well! Obviously wouldn't sell as many, but I selfishly i would love one

I completely understand this. During my college/intern years I designed plastic parts and worked with Mold Shops. With that said, I'm sure there may be plenty of 991.1 owners who would still be interested in a black decklid design that is not the 'exact same GTS design' but a nod to the past decklids (3.2, 993, etc), yet adhere to manufacturability to make it profitable. Just food for thought ...
