Please give us a feedback after installation, and if you had to remove the factory clear PPF to install them.

I have the magnetic ones and love them. They are pretty heavy duty so I imagine they do a better job than your standard stick on stone guards.

Yes, the PPF was doing what it was there for, yet I would probably have to replace the entire panel sooner due to that area, and I thought these magnetic one would be easy to put on and take off as needed. They work great and "stick" well even over the PPF - even at highway speeds. I take them off when washing and detailing the car, slap them back on when needed.
Yep, I do exactly the same. Put em’ on for spirited drives, take em’ off for cruising around town.

The black looks great on white...or any color if you want to protect your fenders, especially if you have a wide body.

My car came with plenty of Xpel. The factory paint protection film on my rear quarter panels was removed and a much larger section of Xpel was applied.

Despite that it is a good thing I installed the MagnaGrafik stone guards because they have taken a beating considering my very low mileage. No regrets!

Damn, forgot the photo...

I put black Magnagrafik shark fins on mine and they have absorbed a significant amount of abrasion so they're doing their job.

I would have liked the black fins as an option, they do offer this now on at least one 992 model.

Very happy with them.

Here’s mine. I really like them. I went this direction once my stock clear one got a bubble in it and discolored.

I have the same car you just pictured, same wheels and color....I was on a site just this afternoon that sells stone guards, but they are magnetic. Not sure about how good they are, but I suppose you could try them and see if I like them. Here is the link.... https://magnagrafik.com/
I think they look really nice !

Hope this helps.

When ordering from magnagrafix, just tell them your car model and they will send you the right ones, they havent updated their catalog from the 997 options.

I got the manetic black stone guards on my Chalk 4S and tinted the side markers and turn signals to match the tinted head and tail lights. All in all a nice looking package (I think)

Before the side markers changed out.
