No offense but why would anyone purchase without knowing not only how it attaches but whether it's a quality piece. It's cheaper than the ones out there but not free. This is also going on the back of your car where maybe it won't improve handling but could harm it if it's not right. And I did not see any comment that it attaches with 2 sided tape but if it does its definitely not worth buying. Not in that area of the car. This isn't mirror trim.

You almost had me sold until I saw the TAPE
No way that will hold up if your doing 100MPH+
Next you know its in someones windshield with a lawsuit on your hands.
Please go back to the drawing board and make with some form of screw attachment.

The diffuser mounts with both 3M double sided tape and screws it is a very high quality polyurethane piece that fits over the existing plastic diffuser and no need to remove the original black trim.
We have sold hundreds of rear diffusers for 996,997, 991 Turbo and Boxster models and have not had one come off. Porsche, GMC and most car manufacturers use 3M industrial strength double sided tape to attach rocker panels and other exterior parts on their cars.
We also use it on our front bumper spoiler lips and the 3M double sided tape holds up very, very well.
We ship around the world the cost to ship to Hong Kong is $91.00

We are working on narrow body side rocker panels and should be available in the middle of summer they will be very similar to the Tekart style.

I have a large aftermarket CF diffuser on my SLK55 that is held on with double sided tape along with rivets and a screw. Zero issues. It's not going anywhere. I wouldn't hesitate to put this on my soon to be 991.

I'm interested but would like to see some pictures showing the rear from a distance. The current pictures are way too close and don't give a good idea on how the diffuser would look. Also +1 on installation information. You mentioned you need screws, how many screws, are they provided, and where do they go?

Hello Rennlisters, As for the attachment, our piece mounts through out the top bumper flanges with the same industrial 3M double sided tape OEM units mount with, but also use adhesion promoter ampules to double the strength of the bond (always provided for you with the purchase of all our poly products.) As an added measure of securing the unit for high speeds, the bottom tips mount securely to the bottom of your rear bumper with screws (also provided.) We actually pre fitted them on perfect cars with our friends from our local Porsche Dealership. And on several cars for consistency and aesthetics. The pictures we showed in the sale are actually from there. As for seeing a picture of the unit installed from a distance, we will have another car coming in this week for an installation. We will take the photos for you to get those views as well. The difference it makes is incredible. But you will see for yourselves. So stay tuned for those pics later this week. As always, we are at your service and thank you.

Hello All! To answer Valvefoat991 if the unit creates any real harm. Of coarse not. The lower part of the diffuser is contoured to match the edges of your OEM rear bumper. Means, no issues with exhaust, oil changes, etc. The edges of the diffuser mount on the bottom of your bumper to provide additional security on the unit as well.

Noooooooo. Make them attach like the stock pieces. You will get so many more customers. No one likes that side skirt that leaves the straight line across the side of the car.

I'm surprised at the level of interest in something the looks like a diffuser but isn't. Normally we cast out rice rocket bolt ons... that look the part but do nothing.
I'd rather pay double for a diffuser that diffuses. In the minority it seems.
Any plans on making something wind tunnel tested that starts under the engine?
