jpu1, you’ve done it now. Looking at pic #4, you have to go to black headlights.

you may be right!

I'll give it a long look. I've enjoyed the current spec because it matches the polished lips well. Luckily, I was planning on having them reconditioned anyway, and the company who does that can convert to black...so definitely something to consider!

I went the other way & had my stone guards removed completely! It always bugged me that the leading edge of the clear plastic stone guards collected dirt, no matter how well the car was cleaned. My 5 year old Carrera T is a daily driver & has done over 47k miles now. It lives outside all year round and is certainly not wrapped in cotton wool. I actually am comfortable with a few minor battle scars that are collected over the years.

I totally get what you mean...definitely a great look without. we're in the same boat overall, at 58k miles my car feels like one big rock chip during some washes...I do however try not to lean into anymore damage than I can avoid, and I'm enjoying the contrast. Beautiful car you have and I LOVE the yellow.



I did also order a techart II wing last week so people would stop yelling at me for leaving my spoiler up

I’m just going to leave this here, as its a little different from other purchases.
I'm sure you will be, but could you please provide some details when you're able on additional parts needed for install? I.e. rails

Will this trigger an airbag light?

Cheers! Yours is a stunner too. Great wheels and I love 911s in bright, cheerful colours!

Looking forward to seeing your Techart wing fitted.

2018 Cabriolet GTS

I recently found a product on eBay that looks very similar to the GT3 Touring's gurney flap, so I ordered it and installed it yesterday. It feels really similar and the quality of the product is good, and the price is less than 1/10 of the GT3 Touring's gurney flap.

I literally bought the same wing & installed it a month ago. I love it! I actually offered them $140 for it and they accepted lol
