Chris, I hope that you are making a GT3 touring (.2) style cover that will fit the .1 cars.

Its been many, many years but I recognized your name from my days of inhabiting the 993 forum (early 2ks?). Glad to see a familiar name/poster again!

Yes of course nice to see you over in another forum, so many years later!
3D printing very possible or even cast urethane with plating - either not great with long term durability. Still evaluating options.

oh man, this is interesting! the rear decklid is the one "major" exterior modification that's on my consideration list. just not in love with the standard... GTS is only a modest improvement and the 911R grille is absurd money.

I've got a grille badge I'd love to be able to put on a new decklid someday.
