Has anyone contacted Marcus in Germany about this idea? He used to make a CF tub that sat in the place of the spare wheel. Maybe he has created some more "frunk" pieces...

I wish Gunther Werk would share their template of their frunk liner... it would be so helpful towards making of the individual panels.

3D Printing isn't great for large items. Also, thin-walled items can be brittle unless using a resin style or nylon printer which can be prohibitively expensive. ABS and PLA are heat sensitive. ABS is better than PLA in this respect but I know people who made phone holders that melted and sagged in the cabins. Maybe making a buck and vacu-forming something around it would be an easier way to go? Getting the molded frunk liner flocked would be a nice way to make it look stock.

Just heard back from Southbound on their RS-style frunk carpet. It's 193 Sterling plus shipping. $275 plus shipping.

Perhaps old news but I stumbled upon this today while searching for something else. Certainly not as elegant as what Gunther is doing but thought I'd share...

Why not contact weathertech to check for a business case.

My frumpy liner matches the seats- "pleated, supple". Surprised Porsche didn't make it an option.

yes, seen that unfortunately only comes as one entire unit so you have to take the entire sides, back, flooring & front out which I think is big & awkward.

The sides & back rarely need removing once installed. Major access is to spare tire/battery area.

I sent them an inquiry after Ruf posted a pic of their collaboration with Weathertech on floor mats. Never received a response.
