See image, something like the black textured vinyl on the left, vs the matte black vinyl on the right. I have a good shape for the 992 narrow body but I haven't done a turbo yet. Is yours a turbo or was that just for comparison sake?

Can you make these to match paint color?

Hello! great thread and by the looks of it one for the record books in terms of length : )

Can you set me up with a set for my 18' 991.2 GTS (Carrera White Metallic). I think based on what I've seen color to order is deep black, i would also like to add the porsche lettering on the bottom. Thx!

Just as an fyi. MagnaGrafik is still in business. I had ordered some stone guards from them before I read this entire thread so I thought my order would never be filled. Got an email from Dan today that the order shipped. In the meantime I had already got my order from Shane. So now I have a backup pair. All good.

I just received my magnetic stone guards from tx targa this week. The product is amazing. Fits perfectly on my turbo S .1. He shipped them the same day I ordered. All in all I’m very happy with the result. Sadly no sunny days since they were installed, so a garage pict will have to do.

Wanted to add that I got these from @tx targa and they are great - here they are test fitted last night (she needs wax before the "final install") but overall, very impressed and like the look.

Also covers up the current stickers that have some marks on them.

Honestly, for the $$$, they are a no-brainier in my opinion.
