Trying to decide on getting or not the stone guards for my white GTS from Suncoast. Keep hearing from others about how junkie the OEM clear ones are. Lookin at these:

Any pics available, tried searching but did not find any, did not try too hard tho...lol Not sure but was thinkin might be like asking what side blades you like on the Macan. Or too much of a Stormtropper look for some

Hard to resist the nostalgic look of black shark fins on a widebody 911. I say go for it.

I have seen them on several white cars. Stark contrast works for me, but maybe not everyone. The one thing I think all will agree on - nothing worse than the clears and how bad they look as they start yellowing.

Agreed.... I like the look.

Are they matte or gloss black?

Had them on my base - loved it while I had it

Had them on the 50th and purchased from Suncoast. They were kinda cheesy and if doing again might opt for the magnetic version's. T

without (meaning clear look better imho)

I bought the ones from suncoast. They are thinner than the stock clear guards. After a couple of months the vinyl was pretty roughed up.

Ended buying these magnetic ones from http://magnagrafik.com/Products.aspx

These are thicker, stick on well and can be removed when cleaning the car.

I'm a fan of the magnetic ones. They fit over the clear factory pieces so you have an added layer of protection between them and the paint.

Thanks guys...totally forgot about the mag ones, they great and very cool option!!!

Vaderone, I just clicked your linkie and everything seems to be for air cooled or 996/997. Did you just go with the latter, or did you talk to them and find out they have a 991 that's just not in the catalog?

vaderone

I emailed them and they responded rather quickly about the options for 991.

Has anyone "top speed tested" the magnetic stone guards? Worried they might come off at 170.

If you are going for "the look", get them. If you are really looking for protection these won't do it. You will get chips and all kinds of other road debris. I just had my rockers wrapped. They start at about door handle height wrap straight across to wrap around the wheel well and into the door jam and under the door full length of the rails with Xpel Ultimate. I now feel I have adequate protection.
Just a thought if your motivation is protection. These cars kick back a ton of road crap.
